Question

All substances taking part in a certain interaction are shown below: Butane is written followed by an addition sign followed by Oxygen followed by an equal to sign followed by Carbon dioxide followed by an addition sign followed by Water. Just below Butane 29 grams is written and just below Carbon dioxide and Water is a parentheses below which 133 grams is written Which of the following is the correct estimate of the amount of oxygen used in the interaction? Sum of 133 g and 29 g Difference between 133 g and 29 g Twice the sum of 133 g and 29 g Twice the difference between133 g and 29 g

Answer 1

Difference between 133g and 29g

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The Law of Conservation of Mass simply states that the total amount of mass should not change in a chemical reaction that is isolated (no other objects can enter the reaction). The total mass of the reactants must be equal to the total mass of the products. Thus, the correct estimate of the amount of oxygen used in the interaction is the difference between 133 g and 29 g.
