As part of an investigation, students combined substances in a beaker to observe chemical reactions. They performed two procedures. They measured the mass of each substance before and after each reaction. The table shows their observations. Assuming the students did not make any careless errors, what likely explains these changes in mass?

A. Procedure 1: All the reactants were liquids that evaporated.
Procedure 2: A gas was formed as one product, and it escaped into the air.

B. Procedure 1: One of the reactants was converted to thermal energy.
Procedure 2: All the products were liquids.

C. Procedure 1: The reactants were liquids with different densities.
Procedure 2: The reactants were combined into only one product.

D. Procedure 1: One of the products was a gas that escaped into the air.
Procedure 2: A gas from the air reacted with one of the other reactants.

It is d

Explanation:

And why is becasue I got this gueston right on my test

3 1/4 %

explanation:

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.
