Question 1

Which statement best describes the law of conservation of mass as it applies to chemical reactions?

Accepted Answer

The total mass of reactants equals the total mass of products in a chemical reaction.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

$$1, 2, 1, 2$$

Question 3

A student burns 0.655 g of propane ($$\mathrm{C_3H_8}) in $$excess oxygen and collects 2.00 g of $$\mathrm{CO_2$}$$ and 1.08 g of $$\mathrm{H_2O}. $$Does this experiment support the law of conservation of mass?

Accepted Answer

2 moles

Question 9

Which of the following is a correct statement about combustion reactions?

Accepted Answer

$$1, 3, 2, 3$$

Question 11

A reaction is represented by the following diagram: 2 red spheres (A) combine with 1 blue sphere (B) to form a molecule. Which equation best represents this reaction?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{2A + B \rightarrow A_2B}$$

Question 12

Which of the following best describes the role of coefficients in a balanced chemical equation?

They indicate the relative number of moles of each substance involved in the reaction.

Question 13

If 0.350 mol of $$\mathrm{$$CaCO_3$$} is $$decomposed according to $$\mathrm{$$CaCO_3$$(s) \rightarrow CaO(s) + CO_2$(g)}$$, how many moles of $$\mathrm{CO_2$}$$ are produced?

Accepted Answer

0.350 mol

Question 14

Which of the following is NOT a correct symbol for the physical state of a substance in a chemical equation?

Accepted Answer

$$(p)$$ for plasma

Question 15

A reaction vessel contains 2.0 mol of $$\mathrm{H_2$}$$ and 1.0 mol of $$\mathrm{O_2$}. $$According to $$\mathrm{2H_2 + O_2$ \rightarrow 2H_2O}$$, what is the limiting reactant?
