If by the law of conservation you mean the Law of Conservation of Matter, then it states that matter cant be created or destroyed.
If by the law of conservation you mean the Law of Conservation of Matter, then it states that matter cant be created or destroyed.
The law of conservation of matter is applied to processes not to a compound.
The law of conservation of matter is also known as the law of conservation of mass. It states that mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction, only rearranged.
The law of conservation of matter and energy states that matter and energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another. This principle is a fundamental concept in physics and chemistry, emphasizing the importance of balance and conservation in physical processes.
Answer the question...
The law of conservation of matter states that in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed.
You are confusing the law of conservation of matter/mass with the law of conservation of energy. The law of conservation of matter/mass states that in a closed system matter is neither created nor destroyed. During a chemical reaction matter is rearranged, it doesn't change forms (energy can change forms). The atoms in the products are the same atoms that were in the reactants.
The law of conservation of matter
The law of conservation of matter states that matter is neither created nor destroyed. An example of this is a simple combustion reaction of methane. CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O. There is 1 carbon, four oxygen's and four hydrogens on each side, thus showing conservation of matter.
condensation
The law of conservation of mass, which states that in a closed system, mass is neither created nor destroyed, it can only change form. This means that in a chemical reaction that takes place in a closed system, the mass of the reactants equals the mass of the products.
