Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Total mass of mixture = 100 mg

Amount of salt in mixture = 10 mg

Amount of sand in mixture = 30 mg

Find:

Amount of iron fillings in mixture

Computation:

Using Law of Conservation of mass;

Total mass of mixture = Amount of salt in mixture + Amount of sand in mixture + Amount of iron fillings in mixture

100 = 10 + 30 + Amount of iron fillings in mixture

100 = 40 + Amount of iron fillings in mixture

Amount of iron fillings in mixture = 100 - 40

Amount of iron fillings in mixture = 60 mg
