The properties of a mineral depend on the kind of atoms of mineral being examined
Answer:
a) Volume of vial= 9.626cm3
b) Mass of vial with water = 62.92 g
Explanation:
a) Mass of empty vial = 55.32 g
Mass of Vial + Hg = 185.56 g
Therefore,
Density of Hg = 13.53 g/cm3
b) Volume of water = volume of vial = 9.626 cm3
Density of water = 0.997 g/cm3
- No of protons=No of electrons=15
<h3>Mass no:-No of neutrons+No of protons </h3>
Now
- It has atomic no 15 hence its Phosphorus(P)
Electronic configuration:-
.
Chloride formula:-
or.
Answer:
Yes, Mass is conserved.
Explanation:
Every chemical reactions obey the law of conservation of mass. The law of conservation of mass states that in chemical reactions, mass is always constant.
Equation:
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
From the equation above, one can observe that the reaction started using 2 atoms of Na and it produced 2 atoms of the same element in NaCl. A molecule of Cl produced 2 atoms of Cl in the NaCl
Design a simple experiment to support your answer:
Aim: To demonstrate the law of conservation of mass
One Na atom weighs 23g
Two Na atom will weigh 2 x 23 = 46g
1 atom of Cl is 35.5g
1 molecule of Cl containing two atoms of Cl will weigh 2 x 35.5 = 71g
Total mass of reactants = mass of 2Na + 1Cl₂ = (46 + 71)g = 117g
On the product side, Mass of 1 NaCl = 23+ 35.5 = 58.5g
Two moles of NaCl will give 2 x 58.5g = 117g
Since the mass on both side is the same, one can say mass is conserved.
