Let's answer each question based on the chemical reactions provided.

  1. For the reaction CaCO3 → CO2 + CaO:

    • According to the law of conservation of mass, the total mass of the reactants equals the total mass of the products. Since 30 grams of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) are heated, the total mass of the products (CO2 and CaO) will also be 30 grams.
    • Correct Answer: 30 grams
  2. For the reaction 4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3:

    • During a chemical reaction, atoms are rearranged to form new substances. The atoms of iron (Fe) and oxygen (O2) rearrange to form iron oxide (Fe2O3).
    • Correct Answer: They are rearranged.
  3. What is most likely to occur during a chemical reaction?

    • In a chemical reaction, atoms are conserved; they are neither created nor destroyed, and their total mass remains constant. Thus, mass is conserved in a chemical reaction.
    • Correct Answer: Mass is conserved.
  4. For the reaction NaHCO3 + HC2H3O2 → NaC2H3O2 + H2O + CO2:

    • In this reaction, the atoms of the reactants are rearranged to form the products. No atoms are destroyed, and the total number of atoms remains the same before and after the reaction.
    • Correct Answer: The atoms of the reactants are regrouped during the reaction.
  5. For the reaction 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O:

    • There are four atoms of hydrogen (H) before the reaction (from 2H2). According to the equation, the number of hydrogen atoms remains the same after the reaction; they are just now part of water (H2O). Therefore, there are still 4 hydrogen atoms present after the reaction.
    • Correct Answer: 4

To summarize:

  1. 30 grams
  2. They are rearranged.
  3. Mass is conserved.
  4. The atoms of the reactants are regrouped during the reaction.
  5. 4
