Concept explainers

States of Matter

The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).

Chemical Reactions and Equations

When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.

A chemistry student must write down in her lab notebook the concentration of a solution of potassium chloride. The concentration of a solution equals the mass of what's dissolved divided by the total volume of the solution. Here's how the student prepared the solution: • The label on the graduated cylinder says: empty weight: 1.55 g • She put some solid potassium chloride into the graduated cylinder and weighed it. With the potassium chloride added, the cylinder weighed 31.436 g. • She added water to the graduated cylinder and dissolved the potassium chloride completely. Then she read the total volume of the solution from the markings on the graduated cylinder. The total volume of the solution was 166.4 mL. What concentration should the student write down in her lab notebook? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. -1 g.mL x10 × Ś

The laboratory compared the mass of the starting reactants and final products of the combustion reaction. A technician determined the mass of the firewood and oxygen reactants before burning to be 2.72 kg. After the firewood finished burning, the pile of cooled ash that remained had a mass of 0.095 kg. According to the law of conservation of mass, matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. Do the results of the technician’s combustion experiment contradict the law of conservation of mass?
