Question

6 g of carbon and 16 g of oxygen react to give 22 g of CO₂. This data illustrates: (1) Law of conservation of mass (2) Gay Lussac's law of gaseous volumes (3) Law of definite proportions (4) Law of multiple proportions

Answer 1

$\large{\underline{\underline{\red{\bf{Answer:}}}}}$

Reacⁿ of Carbon and Oxygen:

Oxygen and carbon react with each other to firm Carbon di oxide.

Here 6 g of of Carbon and 16 g of oxygen react with each other to form 22 g of Coabo dioxide.

$\green{\sf{\leadsto \underset{6g}{C} + \underset{12g}{O_2} \longrightarrow \underset{22g}{CO_2}}}$

Here total mass of reactants = 6g+16g = 22g .

Total mass if product = 22g.

So , Mass of reactants = Mass of Products.

Hence , this data illustrates the" Law of conservation of Mass ."

→It was given by Antoine van Lavoisier.

→ According to this law in a chemical reacⁿ mass of reactants is equal to the mass of the products .
