Sodium reacts with chlorine to form the compound sodium chloride, or salt. The chemical formula below shows how the two elements combine into a compound. 2Na + CI2 > 2NaCI If the total mass of the reactants is 58.44 amu, what will be the total mass of the products?

1 answer

According to the law of conservation of mass, the total mass of the reactants in a chemical reaction must equal the total mass of the products. This means that if the total mass of the reactants is 58.44 amu, the total mass of the products will also be 58.44 amu.

So, the total mass of the products will be 58.44 amu.
