A bottle containing a reagent was weighed to show a mass of 25.3658 g. Some material was carefully transferred to a reaction flask, and the bottle reweighed to show a mass of 22.1287 g. What mass of the material was transferred to the flask

Respuesta :

Answer:

3.2371 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial mass of the bottle and the reagent: 25.3658 g
  • Final mass of the bottle and the reagent: 22.1287 g

Step 2: Calculate the mass of the material was transferred to the flask

Since the bottle is unaltered, the mass of the material transferred to the flask is equal to the difference between the initial mass of the system and the final mass of the system.

m = 25.3658 g - 22.1287 g = 3.2371 g
