6. Look carefully at the following diagram. It does not obey the law of conservation of matter. Explain why it does not follow the law of conservation of matter using evidence from the diagram.

Sort of answer, but it'll lead you in the right direction I hope.

Explanation:

I mean, ofc, the molecules or atoms or whatever the circles are can't be put together that way bc matter says so. It looks like the other diagram is showing water or gas, and if it were turning into the one on the right, then it would usually either settle into water if it was gas or become a single solid object like water. If this is gas, then it doesn't make sense, because gas particles are always separate from each other.

considering the question as per the attachment

here we can see that the radon nuclide has 222 as the atomic mass number and 86 as the atomic number.

when it undergoes nuclear fission it gives polonium which has atomic mass number as 218 and atomic number will be 84 along with a helium nucleus which has 4 atomic mass number and 2 as its atomic number.

222 = 218 + 4 (atomic mass number)

86 = ? + 2; therefore ? = 86-2 = 84.

the atomic mass number of polonium will be 84.
