Scientific laws explain observations and experiments that are verified and considered very high forms of scientific intelligence. The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system cannot be created or destroyed in an ordinary chemical reaction; rather conserved. In an easier explanation‚ everything you start with‚ you must end with. Although‚ the substance can look or be shaped differently from the original. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter an object contains. An example

The Law of Conservation of Mass Goals: 1. To identify the parts of a chemical equation. Students need to identify subscripts‚ coefficients‚ reactants‚ products‚ chemical formulas‚ and chemical symbols 2. To appreciate that scientific discoveries are often the result of inquiry. 3. to distinguish between an element‚ a compound‚ and a mixture (and between heterogeneous and homogeneous mixtures) 4. To balance a chemical equation in order to prove that the Law of Conservation of Mass works quantitatively as well as conceptually

It is an important natural resource that either directly or indirectly supports most of the planet’s life. Life here depends upon soil for food. Plants are rooted in soil and obtain needed nutrients there. Animals get their nutrients from plants or from other animals that eat plants. Many animals make
