The count of nucleons
In a nuclear equation, the total number of protons and neutrons is conserved. This means that the sum of the mass numbers and the sum of the atomic numbers must be the same on both sides of the equation before and after the reaction.
Yes, the Law of Conservation of Mass states that mass is conserved in a closed system, meaning that the total mass of the reactants must equal the total mass of the products in a chemical reaction.
Energy may only be transformed from one sort to another. Mass is a form of Energy and as such, must be, and is, conserved. It is 'of no surprise' then, that the number of atoms that enter a chemical reaction is equal to the number of atoms that exist after the reaction has been completed.
When balancing a chemical equation, the number of each type of atom on the reactant side must be equal to the number of each type of atom on the product side. Mass and charge are conserved during a chemical reaction as well.
Basically a chain reaction (nuclear or chemical) is a self sustaining auto-catalytic reaction.In a nuclear reactor it is a neutron chain reaction, where each neutron released in every fission event can trigger another fission event. In a nuclear reactor the excess neutrons must be disposed of, which is the purpose of the control rods so that the reaction can be kept at some desired constant rate.
In order for a nuclear reaction to be balanced, there are quantities that must be conserved. The quantities are the atomic numbers and mass numbers of the particles involved in the reaction.
False. Both mass and energy are conserved.
In a nuclear equation, the total number of protons and neutrons is conserved. This means that the sum of the mass numbers and the sum of the atomic numbers must be the same on both sides of the equation before and after the reaction.

Yes, the Law of Conservation of Mass states that mass is conserved in a closed system, meaning that the total mass of the reactants must equal the total mass of the products in a chemical reaction.
For momentum to be conserved in a system it must
Energy may only be transformed from one sort to another. Mass is a form of Energy and as such, must be, and is, conserved. It is 'of no surprise' then, that the number of atoms that enter a chemical reaction is equal to the number of atoms that exist after the reaction has been completed.

When balancing a chemical equation, the number of each type of atom on the reactant side must be equal to the number of each type of atom on the product side. Mass and charge are conserved during a chemical reaction as well.
No. Mass must be conserved in a chemical changes according to the law of conservation of mass, which holds that the mass of the reactants and the mass of the products of a chemical reaction must be equal. However, there is no similar law about conserving volume and volume can change dramatically if a gas is produced.
