Solution

The correct option is D

Change in total mass of substance


Chemical reactions are characterised by changes that are quite easily observed. Some of these changes are :

(1) Evolution of gas

(2) Change of colour

(3) Formation of precipitate

(4) Change of state

(5) Change in energy

During a chemical reaction, there is no change in the total mass of the substance as the mass or energy cannot be created nor destroyed it can only be transferred within the closed system.
