Solution

The correct option is A 18g of water is formed by the combination of 16g oxygen with 2g of hydrogen
The following is a suitable example for illustrating the law of conservation of mass .
18 g of water is formed by the combination of 16g oxygen with 2g of hydrogen.
According to the law of conservation of mass, the sum of the masses of reactants is equal to the sum of the masses of products.
Sum of the masses of reactants = 16g oxygen with 2g of hydrogen = 18 g
The sum of the masses of products 18 g of water.
