ATOMS Law of constant composition: This states that “A chemical compound (if pure) always contains the same elements combined together in the same proportion by mass regardless of bow the compound is prepared or from where it is obtained”. Law of conservation of mass: This is defined as “In every chemical reaction, the total mass of the products is the …

The law of Conservation of Mass states that the mass of matter before and after a chemical change remains the same. The number of atoms also remains the same. The only thing that changes is the arrangement of the atoms. For example, the mass of hydrogen and oxygen before they combine to make water is the same as the mass …

Like matter, energy can be classified in different ways. For example, energy can either be kinetic or potential. Kinetic energy is energy of motion. Gases are made of molecules that have more kinetic energy than molecules in the solid phase of that substance. For example, water molecules in steam have greater kinetic energy than molecules in liquid water. Potential energy …
