Determination of Chemical Formulae: The Reaction of Zinc and Iodine By Sarah Abstract: The main objective of this experiment was to use to the reaction between zinc and iodine to examine the validity of the Law of Conservation of Mass and the Law of Constant Composition. The Law of Constant Composition was tested by determining the mass of each of the reactants‚ zinc and iodine‚ and comparing their total to the mass of the zinc iodide product plus the excess zinc. The total mass of the reactants
