A strip of magnesium is placed into a test tube with hydrochloric acid to form magnesium chloride and hydrogen. The total mass of the reactant is measured to be 12g. After the reaction is complete, the mass of the system is 11.8g. What happened to the rest of the mass

You would be correct, boiling water does disinfect contamination.    the property of disinfecting means to kill  germs, bacteria and other pathogens or contamination  that might cause an infection or cause a person to become sickly. a couple methods of disinfecting are using soap, other cleaning supplies or by simply "boiling" the contaminate.  the reason why boiling water disinfects certain attributes is because some cells cannot survive the heat and pressure.

The correct answer is "hydrogen".

Answerit curves up and levels out.explanationwe assume that the container contains absolutely no ammonia to begin with as it states that "nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas" react to "produce ammonia."at dynamic equilibrium, the product and reactant concentrations are equal.this means that, starting from a concentration of zero, [nh₃] must curve "up" from zero and then level out to a constant concentration.
