The image is a model of sulfuric acid that has a chemical formula of H2SO4. In 1-2 sentences, explain why creating models, like the one shown in the image above, is important in understanding substances.

Creating models is important in understanding substances because it allows us to visually represent the structure and arrangement of atoms within a molecule. This helps us visualize how the atoms are bonded together and how they interact with each other, aiding in our understanding of the substance's properties and behavior.

2Cu+S→Cu2S
Copper (Cu) reacts with sulfur (S) to form copper sulfide as shown in the equation. A scientist adds 12.7 grams of Cu to 3.2 grams of S to start the reaction. In this reaction, all of the copper and all of the sulfur react. Before running the experiment, the scientist expected the products of the reaction will be a total of 15.9 grams of copper sulfide (Cu2S). In 1–2 sentences, explain the law that the scientist used to predict that the product of the reaction would be 15.9 grams of copper sulfide.
