As a cake bakes, sodium bicarbonate reacts with acids in the cake. The bicarbonate ion in the anion in the acid change places to make carbonic acid. The carbonic acid then breaks down to produce carbon dioxide bubbles that make the cake rise. Check all of the reactions that occurred.

the law of conservation of mass states that in a chemical reaction, the total mass of reactants is equal to the total mass of products. because atoms are only rearranged in a chemical reaction, there must be the same number of sodium atoms and chlorine atoms in both the reactants and products

the answer is b because, investigating whether another species of moth also drinks tears might be interesting, but it would not directly explain why this species of moth does.

to explain why this species of moth drinks tears, the scientist could ask: "what nutrients that moths need are in elephant tears? "

the scientist could experiment with moth repellent or oter ways to keep the moths away, but that would not answer his original question.
