To show that the results of the combustion of the hydrocarbon are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the mass of reactants The mass of the hydrocarbon before combustion is given as: - Mass of hydrocarbon = 0.44 g ### Step 2: Identify the mass of products The products of the combustion are water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂). Their masses are given as: ...

10.0 g of CaCO_(3) on heating gave 4.4 g of CO_(2) and 5.6 g of CaO. Show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.

In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of acetic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium acetate. Show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass. sodium carbonate + acetic acid → sodium acetate + carbon dioxide + water

In a reaction 4.0g of sodium carbonate were reacted with 10g of hydrochloric acid solution. The product was a mixture of 2.5g of carbon dioxide and 11.5g of sodium chloride solution. Is this data in agreement with the law of conservation of mass?

Law of conservation of mass: When 4.2 g of sodioum hydrogen carbone (NaHCO_(3)) is added to a solution of acertc aacid (CH_(3) COOH) weighting 10.0 g then 2.2 g of carbon diosxed (CO_(2)) is released into the atmosphere and the residue ledft weighs 12.0 g . Show that these observation are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass. Strategy: Find the sum total of mass of recants before the reaction and sum total of mass of products after the reaction.
