Read each question carefully and provide your answer in the space provided. For balancing equations, ensure the number of atoms for each element is equal on both sides of the equation.
1. The law of conservation of mass states that matter cannot be created or in a chemical reaction.
2. A is a number placed in front of a chemical formula in an equation to balance it.
3. In a balanced chemical equation, the total number of atoms of each element must be the same on both the reactant and sides.
4. Which of the following is true about a balanced chemical equation?
The number of molecules is conserved.
The total mass of reactants equals the total mass of products.
The physical states of reactants and products must be the same.
