Question

Carlos is making phosphorus trichloride using the equation below. 2p 3cl2 _pcl3 what coefficient of pcl3 would show that the law of the conservation of mass is represented in the chemical equation? 4 3 2 1

Answer 1

The coefficient of $PCl_3$ that will show that the law of conservation of mass is obeyed by the equation would be 2.

What is law of conservation of mass?

It states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed in chemical reactions but can be converted from one form to another.

Thus, in the reaction represented by the equation below:

$2P + 3Cl_2 ---- > 2PCl_3$

The coefficient of $PCl_3$ must be 2 in order for the equation to balance and thus, obey the law of conservation of mass.
