Acid
Activity: Prepare a solution of barium chloride in water and take it in an ignition tube. Prepare a solution of sodium sulfate in water and take it in a conical glass flask. Hang the ignition tube in the flask carefully so that the solutions do not get mixed. Put the cork on the conical flask as shown in the figure. Weigh the flask with the contents carefully. Now tilt and shake the flask so that both solutions get mixed. Weigh again. Which law is verified by this activity?
Law of conservation of mass
