Question

Help me ASAP please??

Answer 1

B 2Li + Cl2 ---> 2LiCl

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 Li atoms and 2 Cl atoms on both sides of the equation.

Answer 2

To see if mass has been conserved during a chemical reaction you must look that there is the same amount of each element on both sides.

Let's look at option A

`S_(8) + F_(2)` →
`SF_(6)`

We start off with 8 Sulfurs and 2 Florine. This means that we must end up with 8 Sulfurs and 2 Florine As you can see this is not the case. We only have 1 Sulfur and 6 Florine. This means this chemical reaction is not balanced and does not show conservation of mass.

Let's look at option B

`2Li + Cl_(2)` →
`2LiCl`

We start off with 2 Li and 2 Cl. This means that we must, again end up with 2 Li and 2 Cl. As we can see this is the case! This equation is balanced and shows conservation of mass. This is you answer!!!

I only did the work up until the answer (B.). Let me know if you need me to explain why C. and D aren't the answer.
