Questions and Answers

What is the main idea of the Law of Conservation of Mass?

  • Mass is conserved in chemical reactions; it is neither created nor destroyed (correct)
  • The total mass of reactants and products in a chemical reaction varies over time
  • Mass is created and destroyed in chemical reactions
  • The mass of any one element at the beginning of a reaction will not equal the mass of that element at the end
  • What did Joseph Louis Proust propose with the Law of Definite Proportions?

  • The masses of elements in a compound can occur in different proportions
  • The masses of elements in a compound are not related to chemical reactions
  • The masses of elements in a compound will change over time
  • The masses of elements in a compound always occur in the same proportion (correct)
  • What did Antoine Lavoisier's 1789 discovery contribute to modern chemistry?

  • It revolutionized science by proposing new laws of chemical combination
  • It introduced the concept of creating and destroying mass in chemical reactions
  • It laid the groundwork for modern chemistry and revolutionized science (correct)
  • It proposed that the mass of an element at the beginning of a reaction is different from the mass at the end

    Study Notes

    Laws of Chemical Combination

    • The Law of Conservation of Mass states that the mass of a closed system remains constant, and matter is neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions.
    • The Law of Definite Proportions proposes that the masses of elements in a compound always occur in the same proportion, regardless of the source of the compound.

    Contributions to Modern Chemistry

    • Antoine Lavoisier's 1789 discovery contributed to the development of modern chemistry by leading to the Law of Conservation of Mass.
    • The Law of Conservation of Mass is a fundamental principle that underlies all chemical reactions.

    Key Concepts

    • The Laws of Chemical Combination state that the total mass in a closed system will remain the same at any point in time.
    • During chemical reactions, the mass is conserved, and matter is neither created nor destroyed.
    • The Law of Definite Proportions, proposed by Joseph Louis Proust, highlights the consistent proportion of elements in a compound, regardless of its source.
