Answer the case-based question given below:
During baking, baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate) present in a cake mixture decomposes on heating to form sodium carbonate (solid), carbon dioxide gas, and water vapour. If the total mass of the cake mixture before baking is \(180 g\) and \(72 g\) of carbon dioxide gas is released during baking, calculate the mass of solid residue left in the cake after baking.
Mass of reactant (cake mixture) =
Mass of carbon dioxide =
According to law of conservation of mass,
Mass of solid residue =
