Answer: Thus mass of products is 177.2 g
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.
The balanced chemical reaction is:
[tex]AgNO_3+NaCl\rightarrow NaNO_3+AgCl[/tex]
mass of silver nitrate [tex](AgNO_3)[/tex] = 124.31 g
mass of sodium chloride [tex](NaCl)[/tex] = 52.89 g
mass of reactants = mass of silver nitrate [tex](AgNO_3)[/tex] +
mass of sodium chloride [tex](NaCl)[/tex] = 124.31 g + 52.89 g = 177.2 g
Thus mass of products = mass of reactants = 177.2 g
