Help would be awesome. Which chemical equation best illustrates the Law of Conservation of Mass? 3LiOH + Fe(NO3)3 yields LiNO3 + Fe(OH)3 2NaCl + CaO yields Na2O + CaCl2 Zn + HCl yields ZnCl2 + H2 Mg + HCl yields MgCl2 + H2
chemical equations illustrate the law of conservation of mass by being balanced.
Says right here : The Law of Conservation of Mass dates from Antoine Lavoisier's 1789 discovery that mass is neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. In other words, the mass of any one element at the beginning of a reaction will equal the mass of that element at the end of the reaction. So, nothing is really going to be changed?
mass cannot be created nor destroyed
Yes, but how do figure out what the answer is now though?
@JFraser
...
which reaction is balanced? which reaction has the same number of each kind of atom on both sides of the arrow?
