Question

In a chemical reaction, two molecules with a total mass of 76 amu react to form a single molecule. What is the mass of the molecule that is formed?(1 point) Responses 38 amu 38 amu 152 amu 152 amu 76 amu 76 amu 228 amu

Answer 1

In a chemical reaction, the law of conservation of mass states that the total mass of the reactants must equal the total mass of the products. If two molecules with a total mass of 76 amu react to form a single molecule, the mass of that molecule will also be 76 amu.

Therefore, the correct answer is **76 amu**.
