Answer:
Explanation:
When we react Hydrochlorid Acid with zinc we have the following reaction:
2HCl(aq) + Zn(s) --> ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)
The hydrogen gas formed is lost to the environment, so we can affirme that in the start we have the mass for all the H, Cl and Zn atoms in the solution, but after the reaction occurs, we have only the mass for the Cl and Zn atoms.
That's why the mass is less than the original.
The law that the student was told is only applied to closed environments.
An excited state refers to an atom with electrons at a higher energy level. More than necessary and a ground state is when all atom's electrons are in their lowest orbital possible
