The atoms undergo chemical changes.
New substances may be a product of the reaction.
Answer:the number of moles represented by 3.0 x 10^24 atoms of Ag is 0.500mol 0.500 m o l .
Explanation:
Put the <em>wood and excess oxygen in a closed contai</em>ner that contains some device that can create a spark (to start the reaction).
Determine the <em>mass of container + contents</em>.
<em>Start the reaction</em> and, after everything has cooled down, again determine the <em>mass of container + contents</em>.
If the two masses are the same, you have demonstrated that the reaction obeys the Law of Conservation of Mass.
It is water soluble so is also soluble in aqueous solutions of NaOH or NaHCO3.
