Accepted Answer

Law of Conservation of Mass

Question 5

Which of the following reactions is endothermic?

Accepted Answer

Photosynthesis: $$6CO_2 + 6H_2O + energy \rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6$ + 6O_2$$

Question 6

Accepted Answer

$$0.048 \ mol$$

Question 7

Which diagram best represents the energy change in an endothermic reaction?

Accepted Answer

To represent the mass of each substance.

Question 10

In a lab, a student calculates the percent yield of $$CO_2$$ from the reaction of baking soda and vinegar. If the theoretical yield is $$2.0 \ g$$ and the actual yield is $$1.6 \ g$$, what is the percent yield?

Accepted Answer

$$80\%$$

Question 11

Which statement best describes an endothermic reaction?

Accepted Answer

It absorbs heat from the surroundings.

Question 12

A student is asked to balance the equation: $$Fe + O_2$ \rightarrow Fe_2O_3. $$What are the correct coefficients?
