1. When carbon dioxide is bubble through a clear solution of calcium hydroxide, a milky solution of calcium carbonate will be formed. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is as follows: 
CO2 + Ca[OH]2 = CaCO3 + H2O.
That is, one mole of carbon dioxide react with one mole of calcium hydroxide to produce one mole each of water and calcium carbonate.

2. An acidic oxide is defined as those compounds of oxygen which react with water to form acids or react with bases to form salts. They are usually oxides of metals or of metals in high oxidation states.
 In the chemical equation given in answer 1, one can easily see that carbon dioxide is an acidic oxide because it reacts with calcium hydroxide [which is a base] to produce calcium carbonate, which is a salt.

Which statement best explains why mass is not conserved in a nuclear change?
kogti [31]

Answer:

Mass in nuclear reactions is not strictly conserved due to this principle of mass and energy being quite similar. We know that nuclear reactions release a lot of energy. This energy, though, is actually mass that is lost from nucleons, converted into energy, and lost as the mass defect.

Some mass is turned into energy, according to E=mc2.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

E=mc2 is probably the most famous equation. E is the energy, m is mass, and c is the constant speed of light. Einstein came up with it to show that energy and mass are proportional - one can turn into the other, and back again.

Mass in nuclear reactions is not strictly conserved due to this principle of mass and energy being quite similar. We know that nuclear reactions release a lot of energy. This energy, though, is actually mass that is lost from nucleons, converted into energy, and lost as the mass defect.
