The Law of Conservation of MassThe Law of Conservation of Mass
‘In a chemical reaction, the mass of the products is equal to the mass of the reactants.’
‘Matter can neither be created nor destroyed in any physical or chemical change.’

People had no idea why the law was always true.

Activity 2: The Law of Definite Proportions
End of 1700s
Some chemists tried to mix different elements to see how they reacted with each other.

Look at the results of the following reactions:
carbon + oxygen carbon dioxide
carbon + oxygen carbon monoxide
copper + oxygen copper(II) oxide

The Law of Definite ProportionsThe Law of Definite Proportions
Nobody could explain why elements behaved like this.
‘A given chemical compound always contains the same proportions by mass
of its constituent elements.’
Proposed by Joseph Louis Proust in 1797

Activity 3: Atomic theory
All matter is composed of very small discrete particles.
For elements, the particles are called atoms and they are indivisible and indestructible in chemical reactions.

Law and Theory
Kinetic Theory explains these behaviours i.e. the Ideal Gas Law.
The Ideal Gas Law describes the behaviours of ideal gases.

Atomic Theory
All matter is composed of very small discrete particles.
For elements, the particles are called atoms and are indivisible and indestructible in chemical reactions.
Each atom of a given element has the same mass. (ii) All atoms of a given element are identical. (iii) The masses of atoms of different
elements are different.
A chemical compound is formed from its elements by the combination of the different atoms in a fixed ratio for that
compound.

Activity 4: Assessment
(a) The mass of an iron atom in a hammer is greater than the mass of an iron atom in a nail.
(b) When you change a piece of solid copper into the liquid state, the mass of each copper atom decreases.

(c) When you heat a silver ring, it expands. This is because the silver atoms become bigger.
