Question

6. What does the formula H,SO, represent? Calculate the atomicity also
​

Answer 1

Answer:

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

Ans.

Sodium carbonate + Ethanoic acid → Sodium ethanoate + Carbon dioxide + Water

5.3 g + 6 g → 8.2 g + 2.2 g + 0.9 g

LHS RHS

11.3 g = 11.3 g

(Mass of reactant) (Mass of product)

This shows, that during a chemical reaction mass of reactact = mass of product.
