Answer 2

Hey

Here is your answer,

A) equation :

NaCl + AgNO3 --------- NaNO3 + AgCl

B) This equation obeys law of conservation of mass .
Total mass of reactants = Total mass of product

Total mass of reactants = Mass of NaCl + Mass of AgNO3
= 58.5 + 170
= 228.5 u

Total mass of products = Mass of AgCl + Mass of NaNO3
= 143.5 + 85
= 228.5 u

As the total mass of reactants and products are equal, therefore, this reaction satisfies the law of conservation of mass.

Hope it helps you!
