Answer:
The law of conservation of matter says that in chemical reactions, the total mass of the products must equal the total mass of the reactants.
Answer:
FATS
Explanation:
Fats are made up of carbon and hydrogen elements joined together in long groups called hydrocarbons. The simplest unit of fat is the fatty acid, of which there are two types: saturated and unsaturated.
Given:
m = 555 g, the mass of water in the calorimeter
ΔT = 39.5 - 20.5 = 19 °C, temperature change
c = 4.18 J/(°C-g), specific heat of water
Assume that all generated heat goes into heating the water.
Then the energy released is
Q = mcΔT
= (555 g)*(4.18 J/(°C-g)*(19 °C)
= 44,078.1 J
= 44,100 J (approximately)
Answer: 44,100 J
