Question

In a reaction, 5 3 g of sodium
carbonate reacted with 6 g of
ethanoic acid The products were
2 2 g of carbon dioxide, 0 9 g
water and 8 2 g of sodium
ethanoate Show that these observations are in agreement
with the law of conservation of
mass

Anuradha Puri · Accepted Answer

Na2CO3 + 2CH3COOH
â†’ CO2 + H2O +
2CH3COONa

5 3g 6g 2 2g 0 9g 8 2g

Total mass of reactants = 5 3g + 6 g = 11 3 g

Total mass of products = 2 2g + 0 9g + 8 2g =11 3g

Since, the mass on both sides of the reaction is same, the
observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of
mass

In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodiumcarbonate reacted with 6 g ofethanoic acid. The products were2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 gwater and 8.2 g of sodiumethanoate. Show that these observations are in agreementwith the law of conservation ofmass.
