In the reaction C + 02 - CO2, 18 g of carbon react with oxygen to produce 72 g of carbon dioxide. What mass of oxygen would be needed in the reaction? O 18 g O 54 g O 72 g 0 90 g

Mass of oxygen : 54 g

Conservation of mass applies to a closed system, where the masses before and after the reaction are the same

Reaction

mass before reaction = mass after reaction

mass C + mass O₂= mass CO₂

acid rain does not usually kill trees directly. instead, it is more likely to weaken the trees by damaging their leaves, limiting the nutrients available to them, or poisoning them with toxic substances slowly released from the soil. the main atmospheric pollutants that affect trees are nitrates and sulphates.
