Carbon can react with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. Which of the following statements about this chemical change is true.
A. Carbon and oxygen atoms change into atoms of carbon dioxide
B. Carbon and oxygen atoms are rearranged into a new substance
C. Carbon and oxygen atoms are destroyed as new atoms are formed
D. Carbon and oxygen atoms have the same properties as molecule of carbon dioxide

Respuesta :

Answer:

B

Explanation:

none of the other answer choices make any sense, due to basic laws of physics

Carbon and oxygen atoms rearrange into a new substance, Carbon dioxide. Option B is correct.

The reaction is

[tex]\bold {C + O_2 \rightarrow CO_2}[/tex]

1 mole of carbon react with 1 mole of oxygen gas to form a new molecule or substance, Carbon dioxide.

A molecule is made up two or more than two atoms, either of same or different type.

In a chemical reaction atoms of the reactants are not destroyed, they rearrange themselves to form product.

Therefore, Carbon and oxygen atoms rearrange into a new substance, Carbon dioxide.
