Answer:
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, for the given reactants side, we infer this is a double replacement reaction because all the cations and anions are switched around as a result of the chemical change, we infer that the products side include aluminum with nitrate and magnesium with sulfate as shown below:
However, we need to balance since unequal number of atoms are present at both sides, thus, we do that as shown below:
Thus, we make 6 Al atoms, 3 S atoms, 3 Mg atoms and 30 O atoms on each side in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.

Remember that density refers to the "mass per unit volume" of an object.
So, if an object had a mass of 100 grams and a volume of 100 milliliters, the density would be 100 grams / 100 ml.
In the question, water on the surface of the scale would add weight, so the mass of the object that you're weighing would appear to be heavier than it really is. If that happens, you'll incorrectly assume that the density is GREATER than it really is
As an example, suppose that there was 5 ml of water on the surface of the scale. Water has a density of 1 gram per milliliter (1 g/ml) so the water would add 5 grams to the object's weight. If we use the example above, the mass of the object would seem to be 105 grams, rather than 100 grams. So, you would calculate:
density = mass / volume
density = 105 grams / 100 ml
density = 1.05 g/ml
The effect on density would be that it would erroneously appear to be greater
Hope this helps!
Good luck
