Using our procedure, we know that we did not recover all of each component in the original sample. Therefore, the mass % for each recovered component would not exactly match the actual mass % of each component in the original sample. Rank the 3 components from most confident (or smallest difference between the original mass % and the recovered mass % first) to least confident (or largest difference between the original mass % and the recovered mass % last). Explain where error in the mass of each recovered component may have come from.

out of these options:

ability to burn paper

pure sodium reacting violently with water

the boiling point of water

helium does not tend to react with anything

i would say this is a physical property:

helium does not tend to react with anything

why? :

i said helium does not tend to react with anything because well, it reacts to ! but ability to burn paper, pure sodium reacting violently with water, & the boiling point of water are chemical or

physical properties: the properties of a substance that can be observed without changing the chemical makeup of the substance

chemical properties: properties of a substance relating to the chemical nature and reactivity of the substance

law of conservation of matter
