Because you are never adding more than the substances created, nor are you creating any, but should a chemical reaction take place you could see the liquid change form into a gaseous state and that would result a loss of the liquid volume.
So to wrap it all up you can’t have more liquids than what is already there but you could always lose some due to a chemical change, hence the reason it says an open flask, the chemical change would not be collected, mass would be lost
corrected question: A chemist adds 135mL of a 0.21M zinc nitrate solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of zinc nitrate the chemist has added to the flask. Round your answer to significant digits.
Answer:
5.37g
Explanation:
0.21M means ; 0.21mol/dm³
1dm³=1L , so we can say 0.21mol/L
if 0.21mol of Zinc nitrate is contained in 1L of water
x will be contained in 135mL of water
x= 0.21*135*10³/1
=0.02835moles
number of moles= mass/ molar mass
mass= number of moles *molar mas
molar mass of Zn(NO₃)₂=189.36 g/mol
mass= 0.02835 *189.36
mass=5.37g
