This lesson focuses on the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that mass cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. Students will review two different chemical reactions and write the formulas for the elemental clumps present on both sides of the reactions. Through interactive activities, including identifying balanced equations and reflecting on the importance of balancing reactions, students will deepen their understanding of how mass is conserved during reactions, illustrating a fundamental principle in chemistry.
