Answer: Law of conservation of mass explains these observations.
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products formed must be equal to the mass of reactants taken.
In order to get the same mass on both sides, the atoms of each element must be balanced on both sides of the chemical equation.

Mass of reactants= mass of Mg+ mass of
= 48 g + 32 g = 80 g
Mass of products = mass of
= 80 g
Thus mass of reactants is equal to mass of products, thus law of conservation of mass is obeyed.
Answer:
Are basic:
[OH⁻] = 3.13x10⁻⁷M and [H₃O⁺] = 9.55x10⁻⁹M
Explanation:
A solution is basic when pH = - log [H₃O⁺] is higher than 7.
It is possible to convert [OH⁻] to [H₃O⁺] using:
[H₃O⁺] = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / [OH⁻]
a. [OH⁻] = 3.13x10⁻⁷M
[H₃O⁺] = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / [3.13x10⁻⁷M]
[H₃O⁺] = 3.19x10⁻⁸M
pH = - log [H₃O⁺] = 7.50
[OH⁻] = 3.13x10⁻⁷M is basic
b. pH = -log [H₃O⁺] = - log 0.000747M = 3.13.
This solution is not basic
c. [H₃O⁺] = 9.55x10⁻⁹M
pH = 8.02
This solution is also basic.
Groundwater adds water to lakes, rivers, and oceans.
As sulfur-31 has 16 protons (equivalent to the atomic number) in total. The quantity of protons and electrons in an atom is equal. Consequently, sulfur-31 has 16 electrons in total.
As a result, sulfur-31 has (31-16) or 15 neutrons (the difference between the mass number and atomic number).
What is the atomic number?
The average mass of an element's atoms expressed in atomic mass units is known as its atomic mass (amu, also known as daltons, D).
- The mass of each isotope is multiplied by its abundance to produce the atomic mass, which is a weighted average of all the isotopes of that element.
- (Atomic mass is also known as atomic weight however, "mass" is a more precise phrase.)
The atomic mass of an element, measured in AMU, is equal to the mass in grams of one mole of an element.
- This relationship between the atomic mass and the mole concept is important in chemistry.
Hence, the answer is 15neutrons.
