Answer: definite proportions.


Explanation:


1) The definite proportions law states that compounds will always have the same kind of atoms (elements) in the same mass proportion (ratios).


2) For example, a molecule of water will alwys have the same mass ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms. That is what permits to obtain the chemical formula of the water molecule as H₂O.


The mass of the two hydrogen atoms will be in a fixed ratio respect to the mass of the oxygen atoms.


Then, if you have one reactant in less proportion than the other, respect to the ratio stated by the chemical formula of water, the former will react completely (it is the limiting reactant) with the corresponding (proportional) mass of the later. Then there will be an excess of the later reactant which will not react (will remain unchanged).


The reactants can only react in the proportion defined by the chemical formulas of the final products.

Which of the following chemical equations proves that the law of conservation of mass is in effect?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

2KCl + F₂   →     2KF + Cl₂

Explanation:

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

2KCl + F₂   →     2KF + Cl₂

In this equation mass of reactant and product is equal. There are 2 potassium 2 chlorine and fluorine atoms on both side of equation it means mass remain conserved.

All other options are incorrect because mass is not conserved.

Mg₂ + LiBr ---> LiMg + Br

In this equation mass of magnesium is more on reactant side.

Na +O₂ ---> Na₂O

In this equation there is more oxygen and less sodium on reactant side while there is more sodium and less oxygen on product side.

H₂O ---> H₂ + O₂

In this equation there is less oxygen on reactant side while more oxygen on product side.
