Question
Chapter 1, Problem 33E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The consistency of the given data sets on
Concept Introduction:
The law of conservation of mass states that any system which is closed to the passing of the energy and matter has its mass constant because the mass of the system can never be changed. Therefore, no quantity can be removed or added to it. So, the mass remains conserved for all the chemical changes.
If a reaction is consistent with the law of conservation of mass, it means that in the given chemical reaction, the mass of reactants and the mass of products are equal to each other.
