Question

When 3.0 g of carbon is burnt in 8.00 g oxygen, 11.00 g of
carbon dioxide is produced. What mass of carbon dioxide willbe formed when 3 g of carbon is burnt in 50 g of oxygen which law of chemical combination will govern your answer

​

Answer 1

Explanation:

As per the given condition, when 3.0 g of carbon is burnt in 8.00 g oxygen, 11.00 g of carbon dioxide is produced. Therefore, the law of conservation of mass is proved. Then, it also depicts that the carbon dioxide contains carbon and oxygen in a fixed ratio by mass, which is 3:8
