<h3>What is the law of conservation of mass?</h3>

The law of conservation of mass states that, mass can neither be created nor destroyed. In view of the law of conservation of mass, the total mass of the reactants on the left-hand side must be the same as the total mass of products at the right hand side.

Thus is the total mass of the reactants and the products are not the same, it then follows that the reaction does not demonstrate the law of conservation of mass. In this case, the total number of each of the atoms on the left and the right are the same thus the reaction equation is balanced.

What is the net ionic equation of the reaction of mgso4 with sr(no3)2?
Bad White [126]

Balanced chemical reaction:  

MgSO₄(aq) + Sr(NO₃)₂(aq) → Mg(NO₃)₂(aq) + SrSO₄(s).

Ionic reaction:  

Mg²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) + Sr²⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq) → Mg²⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq) + SrSO₄(s).

Net ionic reaction:

Sr²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) → SrSO₄(s).

Magnesium sulfate (MgSO₄), strontium nitrate (Sr(NO₃)₂ and magnesium nitrate (Mg(NO₃)₂) are soluble in water. Strontium sulfate (SrSO₄) is not soluble in water.

This chemical reaction is double displacement reaction - cations and anions of the two reactants switch places and form two new compounds.

What is the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure? As air
Marina86 [1]

We need to know the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure.

The relationship is: As air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases.

For any gaseous substance, density of gas is directly proportional to pressure of gas.

This can be explained from idial gas edquation:

PV=nRT

PV=\frac{w}{M}RT [where, w= mass of substance, M=molar mass of substance]

PM=\frac{w}{V}RT

PM=dRT [where, d=density of thesubstance]

So, for a particular gaseous substance (whose molar mass is known), at particular temperature, pressure is directly related to density of gaseous substance.

Therefore, as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases.

What process takes place before an article is published in a scientific journal/
Goshia [24]
Before an article is published in a scientific journal or in any "peer-reviewed" journal the article is reviewed thoroughly by scholars from the journal as well as peers or scholars of the articles author from the same field. This process occurs to provide credibility to the ideas being published and so that readers and other scholars can rely on the validity of the material being published.
