8. The chemical reaction for the double displacement reaction of sodium carbonate with silver nitrate to yield sodium nitrate and silver carbonate is shown below. How does the reaction support the Law of Conservation of Mass?

The number of atoms in the reactants equals the number of atoms in the products.

Madagascar has moved away from Africa over millions of years and its species have evolved separately from those found in Africa.

Madagascar was never connected to other lithospheric plates and its species evolved completely on their own.

Madagascar was connected by a land bridge during the last ice age, about 15,000 years ago and its species have evolved since then.

The species that are now found only in Madagascar could not survive in Africa once the two lithospheric plates drifted apart.
