Two students added a piece of zinc to a solution of
hydrochloric acid in an open beaker. The mass of the
products was found to be less than the total mass of
the reactants. How should the students have
conducted their experiment to reflect the law of
conservation of mass?
A the students should have used a less reactive
metal in their experiment.
B The students should have conducted the
experiment in a closed system.
C The students should have left the beaker on the
scale during the entire reaction.
D The law of conservation of mass does not apply to
all chemical reactions, and the students’ results
properly reflect that.

An inventor claims to have created a wind turbine
that can convert 1 kilogram of water into 1 kilogram
of oxygen and 1 kilogram of high-energy hydrogen
fuel.
1 kg water → 1 kg oxygen + 1 kg hydrogen
This claim is false because it —
F violates the principle of constant
composition
G contradicts the law of conservation of matter
H ignores the strength of the theory of strings
J violates the rules of gravitational attraction
