Question
12 when 14 grams of iron combines with 8 grams of sulfur, 22 grams of iron sulfide is produced. this is an example of the _. law of conservation of matter law of conservation of energy law of conservation of charge law of conservation of momentum skip 11/12 complete
The law of conservation of matter states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. Here, the total mass of iron (14 grams) and sulfur (8 grams) before the reaction (14 + 8 = 22 grams) is equal to the mass of iron - sulfide produced (22 grams). This shows conservation of matter. The other laws pertain to energy, charge, and momentum, which are not relevant in this mass - based chemical reaction context.
