The mass remain unchanged; this is the law of mass conservation.
atoms are not lost or gained in a chemical reaction
In a chemical reaction the mass of reactants is equal to the mass of products; burning is a chemical reaction.
matter is never destroyed by reactions created by chemical More specifically, both mass and energy cannot be created or destroyed in any chemical reaction, but mass and energy are equivalent under Einstein's theory of special relativity, so energy can change to mass and vice-versa in the ratio E = mc2
Elements cannot be lost/gained: this is the law of mass conservation.
The law of conservation of mass states that in a close container, when a chemical reaction occurs, no mass will be lost.
Atoms cannot be added or lost in a chemical reaction.
The mass remain unchanged; this is the law of mass conservation.
Mass is never lost nor gained - neither in chemical reactions, nor in other cases.
False
No, what is left of the log is reduced in mass but mass is conserved as the remainder is ashes and tiny particles that rise as smoke,
The Law of Conservation of Mass applies to chemical changes. When considering a chemical change this would mean that the total mass of all of the reactants in the chemical reaction is equal to the total mass of products in the chemical reaction.
atoms are not lost or gained in a chemical reaction
False. Both mass and energy are conserved.
The valance shell is important in chemical reactions, as it is the valance electrons which are gained/lost during reactions. An atoms valance electron configuration is what largely determines its chemical reactivity.
Mass can not be changed
No. The explosion of a firecracker is a chemicalexplosion. Matter is converted from one form to another; molecules, that is, the atoms in the molecules, rearrange themselves releasing energy. That's the blast and the light. But the total mass of the substances involved is carried over into the combustion byproducts. No mass is lost. Chemistry does not change the involved mass in a reaction. Only nuclear reactions cause change in mass. In chemical reactions, energy can be released or absorbed according to the reaction and the constituent substances involved.
