Answer:
Yes,they will have the same mass.
Explanation:
According to law of conservation of mass:
'Mass can neither be destroyed nor be created during a chemical reaction'
In a balanced chemical reaction :
Total numbers of atoms on the reactants side are always equal to the total numbers of atoms on the product side.
Total mass of the atoms on the reactant side of the equation is always equal to the total mass of atoms on the product side.
For example:
Number of atoms on reactant side =
=(2)2 Hydrogen atoms + (1)2 Oxygen atoms = 6 atoms
Number of atoms on the product side =
=(2)((2 Hydrogen atoms) + (1 Oxygen atoms)) = 6 atoms
Mass of of reactants = (2)(number of hydrogen atoms)(mass of hydrogen atom) + (1)(number of oxygen atoms)(mass of oxygen atoms)
= (2)(2)(1u)+(1)(2)(16u) = 36u
Mass of products = 2((number of hydrogen atoms)(mass of hydrogen atom)+(number of oxygen atoms)(mass of oxygen atom))
= 2((2)(1u)+(1)(16u)) = 36u
Mass of of reactants = Mass of products = 36u
