    The document describes an experiment conducted by Sally and Bob to determine if the reaction between baking soda and vinegar follows the Law of Conservation of Matter. They measured the masses of the reactants and products, observed bubble formation and loss of odor, and analyzed the results. However, their conclusion is incorrect because it does not account for the mass of the carbon dioxide produced or use the proper volumes and masses in the analysis.

    OAIM Assignment: Claim - Evidence - Reasoning and Formatting Name: _______________________

    Sally and Bob are tasked with answering the question: Baking soda, sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), reacts
    with vinegar, acetic acid (CH3COOH), to form sodium acetate (NaOOCCH3), water (H2O), and carbon dioxide
    (CO2). Does this reaction follow the Law of Conservation of Matter?

    The Law of Conservation of Matter states that all matter and therefore all mass is conserved during a
    chemical reaction. Mathematically, Δm=0.

    Sally and Bob create the following lab report.

    Materials
    - Baking soda
    - Vinegar
    - Balance
    - Beaker

    Procedure
    - Use a balance to measure 3.9g of baking soda and 5.25g of vinegar.
    - Put the 3.9g of baking soda and 5.25g of vinegar into the beaker
    - Wait for the reaction to end.
    - It generated 7.9g of mixture after reaction and 0.25g of carbon dioxide

    Data and Observations


    Mass of Baking Soda Volume of Vinegar Mass of Vinegar Mass of mixture after
    Reaction

    3.9 grams 5.0 grams 5.25 grams 7.9 grams

    Observations
    - Vinegar stinks.
    - When you mix them together, you get some awesome bubbles.
    - After the bubbles go away, the liquid doesn’t stink.
    Analysis and Conclusion
    This reaction does follow the law of conservation of matter. The Law of Conservation of Matter states that
    during a chemical reaction, all matter and therefore all mass, is conserved. Mathematically, Δm=0. In this
    reaction, the initial mass of the reaction is 8.15 (3.9+5.25) and the final mass is 8.15 gram. The change in
    mass is therefore zero (8.15-8.15=0), so this experiment shows that the law of conservation of matter is true.
    Your task:
    1. (5 points) Rewrite the procedure to correctly find the data listed in the data table. Be sure to
    write your procedure in the OAIM format.
    2. (2 points) Fix the materials list to include the missing materials.
    3. (3 points) Identify and fix any reporting errors with their data.
    4. (2 points) Delete any observations that would be a safety hazard.
    5. (5 points) Is the analysis and conclusion CORRECT or INCORRECT? Justify your answer

    Answer of question 5: It`s incorrect, because the law of conservation of matter is using the mass, but the
    analysis and conclusion is using the volume of vinegar, and the experiment also generate carbon dioxide, so
    the final mass need to add to the mass of carbon dioxide.
