Q & A

What is the law of conservation of mass, as described by Lavoisier?

The law of conservation of mass, proposed by Lavoisier, states that in a closed system, the mass of substances before and after a reaction remains the same.

What experiment did Lavoisier perform to demonstrate his law?

Lavoisier conducted an experiment where he weighed a substance before and after heating mercury(II) oxide. He found that the mass of the oxide decreased as oxygen gas was released, demonstrating that the mass of the system remained constant.

How is the mass of water calculated using Lavoisier's law when hydrogen and oxygen react?

The mass of water (H2O) is calculated by adding the mass of hydrogen (10 grams) and oxygen (80 grams), resulting in 90 grams of water, according to Lavoisier’s law.

In the given example of iron and sulfur reacting, how do you calculate the mass of sulfur?

To find the mass of sulfur, subtract the mass of iron (14 grams) from the mass of iron sulfide (22 grams), giving 8 grams of sulfur.

What is Proust's law and how is it applied?

Proust's law, or the law of definite proportions, states that the ratio of elements in a compound is always constant. It is used to calculate the mass or percentage composition of elements in a compound.

How do you calculate the percentage of iron in Fe2(SO4)3?

To calculate the percentage of iron, multiply the number of iron atoms (2) by the atomic mass of iron (56), divide by the molar mass of the compound (400), and multiply by 100. This gives 28% iron.

How is the percentage of sulfur calculated in Fe2(SO4)3?

Multiply the number of sulfur atoms (3) by the atomic mass of sulfur (32), divide by the molar mass of the compound (400), and multiply by 100. This results in 24% sulfur.

How do you calculate the mass of sulfur in 2 kg of ammonium sulfate (NH4)2SO4 with 75% purity?

First, calculate the mass of pure ammonium sulfate (75% of 2000 grams = 1500 grams). Then, find the molar mass of ammonium sulfate (132 g/mol) and use it to determine the mass of sulfur in the sample.

What is the formula to calculate the mass of an element in a compound?

The mass of an element is calculated using the formula: (Number of atoms × Atomic mass of the element / Molar mass of the compound) × Mass of the compound.

How is the atomic mass of an unknown element X calculated when it reacts with oxygen?

The atomic mass of element X can be determined by using the given mass of X (14 grams) and solving for the molar mass of the compound XOx based on the mass of the compound (30 grams) and oxygen’s atomic mass.
