The student records the mass and volume of each block in a table. Based on the data, what can be concluded about the density of the blocks?
Block 4 is denser than Block 2.
Block 1 is denser than Block 3.
Block 1 is denser than Block 4.
block 3 is denser than Block 2.

How is the Law of Conservation of Matter best represented in a chemical reaction?
The mass of the products is greater than the mass of the reactants.
The mass of the reactants is greater than the mass of the products.
The mass of the reactants is equivalent to the mass of the products.
The mass of the reactants has no relationship to the mass of the products.

2 g
3 g
7 g
10 g
Which chemical equation supports the Law of Conservation of Matter?

When hydrochloric acid (HCl) is added to sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), it produces salt (NaCl), water (H2O), and carbon dioxide (CO2). A student wants to demonstrate this reaction in a science class. With the help of her science teacher, the student weighs out precisely 15 g of NaHCO3 and 15 g of HCl. Then, the student adds all of the NaHCO3 to the HCl. After the two substances react, the student carefully weighs the final remaining contents of the beaker. Since the final contents weigh 29 g, the student concludes that the reaction violated the Law of Conservation of Mass.
Which alternate explanation is more likely?
1 gram of carbon dioxide gas escaped into the air, so there was no violation of the Law of Conservation of Mass.
1 gram of carbon dioxide gas escaped into the air, so there was a partial violation of the Law of Conservation of Mass.
Some of the NaHCO3 disappeared when it dissolved into the HCl, and this accounts for the missing 1 gram of mass.
Some of the HCl vaporized into the air when the NaHCO3 was added to it, and this accounts for the missing 1 gram of mass.
A chemical reaction in which all of the reactants and products are gases takes place in a closed system. How would the chemical equation for that reaction be described?

The mass of the product gases is greater than the mass of the reactant gases.
The mass of the reactant and product gases will vary with the temperature.
The mass of the reactant gases is greater than the mass of the product gases.
