Question

Which of the following equations follows the law of conservation of mass?

Answer 1

Answer:

option A = C₂H₄ + 3O₂   →    2CO₂   +  2H₂O

Explanation:

Law of conservation of mass:

This law stated that mass can not be created or destroyed in chemical reaction. It just changed from one to another form.

For example:

C₂H₄   +   3O₂   →    2CO₂   +  2H₂O

28 g   + 96 g    =      88 g  +  36 g

    124  g           =      124 g

This reaction correctly hold the law of conservation of mass.

Other options:

C  + 4H₂  →   CH₄

12 g  + 8g  = 16 g

  20 g  =   16 g

This reaction do not hold the law of conservation of mass.

3H₂O  →   3H₂  +  3O₂

  54 g  =   6 g +  96 g

   54 g =   102 g

This reaction do not hold the law of conservation of mass.

2Na  +  Cl  →  NaCl

46 g  + 35.5 g  =   58.5 g

  81.5 g = 58.5 g

This reaction do not hold the law of conservation of mass.
