Atoms and Molecules

Question:

Explain with example that law of conservation of mass is valid for chemical reactions.

Answer:

According to this law, total mass of the products (chemicals produced) is equal to the total mass of the reactants (chemicals take part in reaction). e.g. Carbon combines with Sulphur to form Carbon disulphide. The mass of reactants i.e. carbon and sulphur is same mass of products (carbon disulphide).
                 Carbon + Sulphur -----➜   Carbon DiSulphide
                   C    +   S     -----➜     C2S  
                   1g   +  5.34g    =       6.34 g 
                       LHS          =     RHS
