Step-by-step explanation:
The total mass of the product will also be 20g because in chemical reactions, mass is always conserved.
According to the law of conservation of mass "the law states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed but changed from one form to another in a chemical reaction".
- The law simply postulates that mass is conserved in chemical reactions.
- If the mass of reactants is 20g, the mass of the products will likewise be 20g.
- So, the mass is the same in both directions.
