Solution
(a) NaCl+ AgNO3 → NaNO3 + AgCl↓
(b) It is a balanced equation.
(c) Weights of reactants:NaCl - 58.44, AgNO3 - 169.87
Weights of products: NaNO3 - 84.99, AgCl - 143.32
NaCl + AgNO3 → NaNO3 + AgCl
(23+35.5) + (108+14+48) → (23+14+48) + (108+35.5)
58.5 + 170 → 85 + 143.5
228.5 g → 228.5 g
(d) Law of conservation of mass: Matter is neither created nor destroyed in the course of a chemical reaction.
