Law of Conservation of Matter

Test Review

What have you learned this past week?

Which of the following states the Law of Conservation of Matter?

a. Two compounds combine to form a new compound with different properties.

b. When atoms are recombined in a chemical

reaction, some matter may be destroyed.

c. Matter cannot be created or destroyed in

a chemical reaction.

Which of the following states the Law of Conservation of Matter?

a. Two compounds combine to form a new compound with different properties.

b. When atoms are recombined in a chemical

reaction, some matter may be destroyed.

c. Matter cannot be created or destroyed in

a chemical reaction.

During chemical reactions, matter is neither created nor destroyed, the atoms are just rearranged.
