The goal of the experiment was to produce 0.75 grams of an insoluble sulfate using Barium Nitrate. This was done using Barium Nitrate(Ba(NO3)2) with Sodium Sulfate(Na2SO4) to produce Barium Sulfate(BaSO4) and Sodium Nitrate(NaNO3). The reactants were measured to get the needed mass of each, and then were dissolved in water within separate beakers. After the reactants were added to each other, the reaction occurred, and a centrifuge was used to separate the products. The end result of the reaction was 1.2 grams of the solid, Barium Sulfate, left inside the centrifuge tube. The law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be destroyed, nor created during a chemical reaction, and that the mass of the products should equal the mass
