1. Which of the following best describes the Law of Conservation of Matter?
Matter can be created or destroyed, but not transformed.
Matter is conserved in chemical reactions, but not in physical changes.
Matter cannot be created or destroyed, only rearranged.
The total mass of reactants is always less than the total mass of products.
2. If 10 grams of hydrogen react completely with 80 grams of oxygen to form water, what is the mass of water produced?
10 grams
70 grams
80 grams
90 grams
3. The Law of Conservation of Matter states that the total mass of the reactants must equal the total mass of the in a closed system.
