Answer: Matter cannot be created or destroyed

Explanation: Balanced equations are set equations we cannot change one element or compound in the equation without changing the entire equation. So balanced equation show the conservation of mass because while other substances may be formed from the synthesis or decomposition of compounds new elements are never introduced and are not created out of thin air :)

Answer:

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. Balanced chemical equations show that mass is conserved in chemical reactions.

What are the representative elements usually called

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

There are two sets of groups in the periodic table. The first set are Group A elements and are also known as representative elements. The second set are Group B elements and are also known as transition metals. Representative elements are the most abundant elements on earth.

Can somebody help me with this also plz

ANSWER:

4 a) Specific elements have more than one oxidation state, demonstrating variable valency.

For example, the following transition metals demonstrate varied valence states: $Fe^{2+}$ , $Fe^{3+}$ , $Cr^{2+}, Cr^{3+}$ , etc.

Normal metals such as $Pb^{2+} and Pb^{4+}$ also show variable valencies. Certain non-metals are also found to show more than one valence state $Pb^{3+} and Pb^{5+}.$

4 b) Isotopes are members of a family of an element that all have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

For example, Carbon-14 is a naturally occurring radioactive isotope of carbon, having six protons and eight neutrons in the nucleus. However, C-14 does not last forever and there will come a time when it loses its extra neutrons and becomes Carbon-12.

5 a) $2Fe + 3Cl_2$ → $2FeCl_3$
