Answer:

4 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

If in an experiment, we have 4g of reactants, the mass of the products will also be 4g.

This is in compliance with the law of conservation of mass in a chemical reaction.

According to this law,

"in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed but changed from one form to another".

If:

A + B → C

4g 4g

mass of A and B must be equal to the mass of the product according to the law of conservation of mass.
