Why is fire not considered to be matter?
beacuse it doesnt have mass
When is the Law of Conservation of Mass valid?
This law is ALWAYS valid. Though the only way it is really obvious is in chemical reactions. When two chemicals react, some people used to think that it was destroying the materials (IE fire), though if you were to gather EVERYTHING from the reaction (in the case of fire, the gas, the ash, etc...) it would have EXACTLY the same mass as before.
How would mass change if you place a burning candle in a sealed container?
When a fire is lit in a sealed container it is very likely to cause an explosion because of the build up of internal pressure from smoke.
How does a chemical change affect mass?
The law of conservation of mass, states that mass is conserved in chemical reactions. chemistry is the study of the composition of matter, (what stuff is made of) ans the characteristic changes in the composition of matter. Such as what kind of "stuff" will burn, rust, rot, or otherwise change what it is made out of. If we add the weight (mass) or reactants such as paper and air before the fire and then take the mass (weight) after the fire of the smoke ans ashes, the mass is the same. ONLY in nuclear reactions is mass converted to energy, only in stars nuclear reactors , and atom bombs is mass (weight) converted to energy( light, or heat). So stars are losing mass (weight). A physical change is not a change in composition, typical physical changes are the melting of solids, and the boiling of liquids. Also cutting something big into little pieces, is a physical change NOT a chemical change a short board is still a board.
