Does this equation obey the law of conservation of mass: 2Z + 2HCI ➡️ ZnCI2 + H2​

2Zn + 2HCI ➡️ ZnCI2 + H2​

LHS of equation

Z = 2

H = 2

Cl = 2

RHS of equation

Zn = 1

Cl =2

H =2

as Zn is not equal in number of atoms on both sides of the equation, the equation does not obey the law of conservation of mass

Explanation:

the law of conservation mass states that the mass of an isolated system cannot be created nor destroyed by any chemical reaction or physical transformation. thus, there must be an equal number of atoms of an element present on both sides of the equation.

h let me think

answer : (a) volume of the gas = 8.67 ×   l

                (b) second virial coefficient b = -1.21226 l/mole

solution :   given,     t = 300k

                                p = 20atm

                                z = 0.86

                                n = 8.2 mmoles = 8.2 × moles

                                r =   0.082 l atm/k/mol

        find,     (a) volume of gas   and (b) second virial coefficient b at 300k.

formula used :            

                          and            

(a)            

                    = \times 0.082\times 300}{20}[/tex]

                    = 8.67 ×   l

(b)      

                    = (0.00867-1) × 8.659

                    = - 8.5839 l/mole
