A model for a potential chemical reaction is shown here. Evaluate the model and the reaction shown. Which statements are correct
about this model. Select ALL that apply.
A) The law of conservation of matter is followed in this model.
B) Conversation of matter is not observed because of some of the atoms are converted into energy in the reaction.
C) Conservation of matter is observed because there are the same number of each atom on both sides of the reaction.
D) Conservation of matter is not observed because there are different numbers of molecules in the reactants and the products.

Answer:
Explanation:
1 mole of any substance contains the same number of particles. The particles can vary (atoms, molecules, formula units), but there are always 6.022*10²³ particles. In this case, the particles are formula units of potassium nitrate or KNO₃.
Let's create a ratio.
Since we are trying to find the formula units in 0.250 moles, we multiply by that number.
The units of moles of potassium nitrate cancel.
The denominator of 1 can be ignored, so we can make a simple multiplication problem.
If we round to the nearest tenth, the 0 in the hundredth place tells us to leave the 5 in the tenth place.
0.250 moles of potassium nitrate is approximately equal to 1.5*10²³ formula units of potassium nitrate and choice B is correct.
