SHORT ANSWER
113. ANS:Sample answer: I would carry out a number of reactions in which I carefully weighed both reactants and products, showing that their sums were equal. In reactions that gave off gases I would take care to weigh them and show that no matter was created or destroyed.

114. ANS:Sample answer: Both galvanized steel and aluminum corrode. However, the corrosion that they undergo is beneficial corrosion, preventing the breakdown of the underlying metal. I would correct the ad by saying, “Our gutters are 100 % guaranteed not to break down.”

115. ANS:
Sample answer: I showed an imaginary reaction with atoms A, B, and C. As you can see, the atoms as products join up in different ways than they do as reactants. But the total number of each atom is the same for the products and reactants. No atom (matter) was created or lost.

PTS: 1117. ANS:
The law of conservation of mass states that no matter can be created or destroyed. That means that in a chemical equation, no atom can be created or destroyed. That, in turn, means that both sides of a chemical equation must have the exact same number of each type of atom. If you keep that in mind—that during every step of the process both sides need to have the exact same number of each type of atom—balancing equations becomes easier and more logical.

LOC: E3.5 MSC: Solve a Problem120. ANS:
Two solutions are mixed. Both contain dissolved solutes, and both appear to be clear because they are true solutions. When the solutions make contact, a reaction takes place that creates a solid product that is not soluble in water. Since it is not soluble, that solid drops out as a precipitate. It suddenly appears because as an insoluble material, it can’t stay dissolved in the water solution.

122. ANS:Complete combustion is a “clean” reaction. It results in only two chemical products, carbon dioxide and water. Incomplete combustion produces carbon monoxide and soot (carbon) in addition to carbon dioxide and water. Complete combustion is better for the environment because it doesn’t produce any “air pollution.” However, like incomplete combustion, complete combustion does produce carbon dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas that contributes to global climate change.

123. ANS:Mechanics run car engines in indoor garages. Since most cars do not carry out complete combustion, they emit quantities of carbon monoxide that can be harmful and even fatal to workers.

124. ANS:Sample answer: The law of conservation of mass does seem obvious to me. I think scientists long suspected that no matter could be created or destroyed, but they were fooled by the fact that mass seemed to get lost during a reaction. The breakthrough that Lavoisier provided was not to ignore the gases. Once he included the mass of the “lost” gases, the law must have seemed obvious.

129. ANS:Beneficial corrosion is corrosion that does not destroy the underlying metal. For example, when exposed to air aluminum forms aluminum oxide that sticks tightly to the outer surface of the metal. This aluminum oxide coating prevents oxygen from “attacking” the underlying metal so it protects the metal from breaking down.

130. ANS:Advantages: Hydrogen burns cleanly, producing no pollutants and only water and energy as products. Raw material for making hydrogen—water—is plentiful and easy to obtain.
Disadvantages: Hydrogen is explosive. It could cause accidents if it is not stored safely. Hydrogen would also be a hazard to transport. Also, running the reaction to make hydrogen requires energy. So you must expend energy to get energy from hydrogen. Finally, engines that run on hydrogen are still expensive and impractical.
PTS: 1 REF: C OBJ: 6.9 Types of Chemical Reactions: CombustionLOC: E3.5 MSC: Create and Evaluate
131. ANS:Sample answer: Though hydrogen is clean and non-polluting, I don’t think it is practical enough for today’s market. We don’t have safe ways to store and transport hydrogen. Hydrogen engines are still very expensive. So I would not invest my money in a hydrogen plant—not until the above problems are worked out.

134. ANS:
A decomposition reaction splits AB apart into A and B. A synthesis reaction combines A and B together as AB. A single displacement reaction adds an atom from BC to element A to make AC, leaving B as an element. A double displacement reaction switches partners so AB now takes D to become AD and CD takes B to become CB.

135. ANS:Corrosion is the breakdown of any metal due to a chemical reaction that takes place as a result of being exposed to the environment. Rust is a type of corrosion that is specific to iron forming iron oxide. Other forms of corrosion take place with other metals. If the metal is iron it is rusted. Otherwise it is corroded.

137. ANS:The key difference between harmful and beneficial corrosion is how tightly the oxide clings to the outer surface of the metal. If it clings tightly and doesn’t flake, it will protect the metal. If it flakes it will fall off and expose the underlying metal to more corrosion. This will slowly eat away at the metal.

138. ANS:Sample answer: Oxygen is involved in the corrosion of zinc, the combustion of hydrocarbons, and the combustion of hydrogen fuel. I think oxygen’s importance is related to two things—how reactive it is and how plentiful it is. Air is mostly nitrogen, but nitrogen is fairly unreactive. Air is about one-fifth oxygen and that component allows it to react with all sorts of other substances.

146. ANS:Sample answer: If the law of conservation of mass were not true it would mean that matter could be created “out of thin air” or it could be permanently destroyed. In other words, you might be able to carry out a reaction and create new matter that didn’t previously exist. Similarly, you could also carry out reactions that caused matter to disappear. This would affect my everyday life because people could create matter, including valuable materials, out of nothing. There could be harmful consequences if matter were permanently destroyed.

147. ANS:Sample answer: It helps me to think of the law of conservation of mass in terms of a bank account. In a bank account, money cannot be created or destroyed. Any money you deposit will increase the balance of the account. Any money that you withdraw will decrease the balance. No changes in the balance can occur without either a deposit or a withdrawal taking place.
