Question

A student carries out a chemical reaction that produces a brown powder. How should the student measure the amount of product formed?

Answer 1

Answer:

By measuring the mass on a scale.

Explanation:

When a solid is formed in a reaction (such as a powder), the measure that is taken is the mass on a scale. The solid is separated, for filtration for example. So, to have the mass of it, first, the filter paper is measured alone, then with the solid. The mass of the solid will be the difference between the masses measured.

Answer 2

The mass of the solid product of the reaction is determined by weighing.
