Q: A sample of natural gas (methane) reacts with 96 g of oxygen to produce 66 g of carbon dioxide. According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, how many grams of water are produced?

$$\text{Total mass of reactants} = \text{Total mass of products}$$ $$21 + 96 = 66 + x \implies x = 51\ \text{g}$$

Q: Which of the following is the correct formula to calculate the weighted average atomic mass of an element with two isotopes?

$$\text{(fractional abundance of isotope 1)} \times (\text{mass of isotope 1}) + \text{(fractional abundance of isotope 2)} \times (\text{mass of isotope 2})$$
