In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.
sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water
Law of conservation of mass: Mass can neither be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Given reaction: sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water
Total mass of reactants = 5.3 + 6 = 11.3 g.
Total mass of products = 8.2 + 2.2 + 0.9 = 11.3 g
Total mass of reactants = Total mass of products
Hence, these observation are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.
