Chemistry

Answer:

Mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation, it  transfer from one to another form.

Explanation:

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

For example:

In given photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.

Consider the reaction pathway graph below.
Alex17521 [72]
Hello!

The reaction that the graph represents is A. Exothermic because Hrxn=-167 kJ

To calculate Hrxn we apply the following equation:

Hrxn=Hproducts-Hreagents=-625kJ-(-458kJ)=-167kJ

Looking at the graph, and at the result of the calculations, we can see that the enthalpy of the products is lower than the enthalpy of the reagents, because the sign is negative. That means that the reaction releases energy in the form of heat and that the reaction is exothermic.

Have a nice day!
