The key to solving this problem is density. Density determines the mass of a molecule for a certain volume. Kia is given a beaker containing 100 g which volume is at <span>100 mL mark. Then the density of the liquid would be:
</span>density=mass/volume
density= 100g/ 100ml= 1g/ml
If t<span>he water now comes up to the 50 mL mark, then the weight would be:
</span>density = mass/volume
mass = volume * density
<span>mass = 50ml * (1g/ml)= 50g</span>
It's the law! Matter cannot be created or destroyed in chemical reactions. This is the law of conservation of mass. In every chemical reaction, the same mass of matter must end up in the products as started in the reactants.
An ion is an atom that has lost or gained an electron so the relation ship you would see would be a negative or a positive one depending on if it gained or lost an electron.<span />
