What is the density of the methanol?Chapter 1 5How many kilograms of methanol does it take to fill the 15.5-gal fuel tank of an automobile modified to run on methanol? (1 gal = 3.785 L)Atoms, Molecules,and IonsChapter 2 7Law of Constant CompositionThe law of constant composition states that the elemental composition of a pure substance never varies (also known as the law of definite proportions).Chapter 2 8Law of Multiple ProportionsThe law of multiple proportions states that when two or more different compounds of the same two elements are compared, the masses of one element that combine with a fixed mass of the second element are in the ratio of small whole numbers.Chapter 2 9Law of Conservation of MassThe law of conservation of mass states that the total mass of substances present at the end of a chemical process is the same as the mass of substances present before the process took place.Chapter 2 10Atomic Theory of MatterEach element is composed of extremely small particles called atoms.All atoms of a given element are identical to one another in mass and other properties, but the atoms of one element are different from the atoms of all other elements.Chapter 2 11Atomic Theory of MatterCompounds are formed when atoms of more than one element combine; a given compound always has the same relative number and kind of atoms.Chapter 2 12Atomic Theory of MatterAtoms of an element are not changed into atoms of a different element by chemical reactions; atoms are neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions.The ElectronChapter 2 13Discovery of the NucleusChapter 2
