Solution
Law of conservation of mass: The mass of reactants before the reaction is equal to the mass of products after the reaction.
Take the reaction;
N
2
+
3
H
2
⟶
2
N
H
3
Mass of reactants=
28
+
3
(
2
)
=
28
+
6
=
34
Mass of products=
2
(
17
)
=
34
∴
Mass of reactants before reaction = Mass of products after reaction
∴
Law of mass conservation is fully justified in a balanced chemical equation.
