How does the law of conservation of mass apply to this reaction al +3hcl h2 + alcl3?

Explanation:

In order for the law of conservation of mass to be valid for this reaction, we must balance the atoms of each element so that it is the same in the reactant side and the product side.

In this case, we immediately see that the hydrogen (H) is not balanced: we have 3 on the left and 2 on the right. So, we must put a factor 2 on the on the left and a factor 3 on the on the right. Now the Cl is no longer balanced (6 on the left and 3 on the right), so we must put a factor 2 in front of . And to balance the Al, we must add a coefficient 2 in front of the Al on the right.

Summarizing everything, the balanced reaction is:

wind moving at higher speeds will transfer more energy to the water, resulting in stronger waves.
