A student measures the mass of a sample of a metallic element, M. Then the student heats the sample in air, where it completely reacts to form the compound MO. The student measures the mass of the compound that was formed. Which of the following questions can be answered from the results of the experiment? A What is the density of M? What is the molar mass of M? What is the melting point of M? What is the melting point of MO?

Hi, my question is about the law of conservation of mass. Do not answer the question in the picture. Instead, answer the sub-questions listed below. Thanks.- Does the total mass of the reactants and the total mass of the products appear to be equal after chemical reaction or not? Why? - Why is it that you always end up with less paraffin wax after burning the candle than when you started it?
One gallon of octane is equivalent to 23.2 mol of octane.To travel the same distance with one gallon of octane, how many moles of ethanol would you need?
