Interpretation: A graph must be plotted between the mass of magnesium on the x-axis and the mass of magnesium oxide on the y-axis for the given table.
Concept Introduction: In a chemical change, the
Answer to Problem 12STP
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Mass of Magnesium (g) | Mass of Oxygen (g) | Mass of magnesium oxide (g) |
5 | 3.30 | 8.3 |
6.5 | 4.30 | 10.8 |
13.6 | 9.00 | 22.60 |
19.00 | 12.50 | 31.5 |
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass is conserved in any chemical or physical change. The mass of reactants is always equal to the mass of products during any
On plotting the mass of magnesium on the x-axis and mass of magnesium oxide on the y-axis, the plot obtained is:
