Lee conducts an experiment to see if mass is conserved when a piece of charcoal is burned for 5.0 minutes. He measures the mass

of the charcoal before lighting it with a match. At the end of 5.0 minutes, Lee puts out the fire by suffocating it. After the charcoal has cooled, he measures its mass again. His data are below.
Initial Mass | Final Mass
.415 | .289

Charlene tries to repeat Lee's experiment by using a different piece of charcoal. But she burns the charcoal for just 3.0 minutes and collects all of the gas and dust released by the burning charcoal. She then weighs the total mass of these objects. Her results are below.
Initial Mass | Final Mass
.498 | .498
Charlene's experimental results indicate that mass was conserved. Why do Lee's results indicate that mass was not conserved?

He burned the charcoal for a longer period of time than Charlene did.

He did not collect the gas and dust released by the burning charcoal.

He forgot to measure the mass of the charcoal while it was still burning.

Mass is not conserved when an object undergoes a chemical change.

Charlene conserves mass by collecting "the gas and dust released by the burning charcoal", and Lee does not . . . so the answer is . .

<u><em> . . . He did not collect the gas and dust released by the burning charcoal.</em></u>

Answer:

The answer to your question is   P = 1.64 atm

Explanation:

Data

Volume = 2.5 x 10⁷ L

Temperature = 22°C

Pressure = ?

Moles = 1.7 x 10⁶

R = 0.082 atm L/ mol°K

Process

1.- Convert temperature to °K

Temperature = 22 + 273

                      = 295°K

2.- Use the Ideal gas law to solve this problem

                PV = nRT

- Solve for P

                P = nRT / V

- Substitution

                P = (1.7 x 10⁶)(0.082)(295) / 2.5 x 10⁷

- Simplification

                P = 41123000 / 2.5 x 10⁷

- Result

                P = 1.64 atm

How is heating of sugar and heating of ammonium chloride different from each other? Explain your answer.
algol13
When sugar is heated it melts and then caramelize giving of water. After this, it turns blank (carbon) and then coverts to co2 (carbon dioxide) .
So, heating of sugar is an endothermic , decomposition and oxidation reaction.
  When Ammonium Chloride is heated , it directly goes from solid state to vapour state without changing into liquid state.
So, heating of Ammonium Chloride is an example of sublimation reaction.
