Question 13

What does does not happen to the atoms during chemical reaction that many get confused about?

Answer 13

In a chemical reaction, No atoms are destroyed and no atoms are created

Question 14

What must you do to ‘Show that a mass is conserved in a given reaction’ ?

Answer 14

Prove the reactant Mr is equal to the product Mr

Question 15

Answer 15

When one reactant is used up

Question 16

What is the relationship to the limiting reactant and product formed?

Answer 16

The amount of product formed is directly proportional to the amount of limiting reactant

Answer 17

24dm°3

Question 18

What is the equation to find out the volume of any gas at room temperature?

Answer 18

Volume of gas = Mass of gas / Mr of gass X 24

Question 19

How do you calculate the concentration of a solution with the given mass of the solute?

Answer 19

Concentration = mass of solute / volume of solvent

Question 20

How do you calculate the concentration of a solution with the given moles of the solute?

Answer 20

Concentration = number of moles of solute / volume of solvent
