Answer:

Claim: The chemical equation presented in the data table does NOT follow the law of conservation of matter

Evidence: Since we initially have 14.25 grams of Na and 9.5 grams of HCl

we will find the number of moles in each, to further apply stoichiometry

So,

Moles of Na: Given mass/Molar Mass = 14.25/23 = 0.62 Moles of Na

Moles of HCl: Given mass/Molar Mass = 9.5/36.5 = 0.26 Moles of HCl

Since HCl is the limiting reagent in this reaction,

0.26 Moles of Na will be consumed, which is equal to

5.98 grams of Na

Reasoning:

We are given that the total mass of the product is 22.98 grams

but through stoichiometry, we have found that only (9.5 + 5.98) = 15.48 grams of product can possibly be formed

Hence, the reaction presented in the table does NOT follow the law of conservation of matter
