Corwin Example Exercise 4.9 Conservation of Mass Law In an experiment, g of magnesium metal was ignited and burned with oxygen in the air. If g of white magnesium oxide powder, MgO, was collected, what was the mass of oxygen gas that reacted? If g of zinc metal reacts with g of yellow powdered sulfur, what is the mass of the zinc sulfide produced? Practice Exercise Solution Applying the conservation of mass law, we find that the mass of the magnesium metal plus the mass of the oxygen gas equals the mass of the magnesium oxide powder.
