Brain Pop Conservation of Mass

What is the Law of Conservation of mass?

• Mass is created in a chemical reaction
• Mass is created in a physical change
• New chemicals formed from a chemical reaction have a larger overall mass than the original reactants
• Mass is never created or destroyed

The Law of Conservation of Mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed in an ordinary chemical reaction. When an iron nail rusts, it seems to get heavier in mass. Does the iron nail follow the Law of Conservation of Mass?

• No, rusting is an exception to the Law of Conservation of Mass.

• No, since rusting is a chemical change it does not follow the Law of Conservation of Mass.

• Yes, the iron rearranges its protons so that the masses are the same before and after the reaction and rusting follows the Law of Conservation of Mass.

• Yes, iron chemically combines with the oxygen in the air so if you add the oxygen into the mass of the chemicals before the reaction, the mass after the reaction is the same.

When wood burns, a small amount of ashes is made. Why is the mass of the wood before the fire not equal to the mass of the ashes after the reaction?

• The mass of the wood has been destroyed.

• The mass of the wood and the oxygen that allowed it to burn will equal the mass of the ashes and the gas given off during the burning.

• The mass of the wood and the ashes equals the mass of the oxygen and the smoke given off during the time that the wood burned.

• The wood has holes in it so it is actually lighter in mass than it appears. The mass of just the wood will equal the mass of just the ashes after the burning.

How does the Law of Conservation of Mass apply to a burning candle?

• The amount of wax before the reaction equals the amount of energy afterwards.

• The mass of the wick before the reaction equals the mass of the smoke afterwards.

• The mass of the wick, wax that burned and the oxygen that helped the flame before the reaction equals the mass of the smoke and the gases released after the reaction.

• The mass of the molecules of the candle before the reaction equals the mass of the candle and burned wick after the reaction.
