No. Mass is independent of shape. The mass, as measured by weight, will be the same. If the material is compressible and you change the volume as a result of changing the shape, the density will change although the mass will not.

What would be the mass of a person on the moon?
The mass does not change, the weight does. Mass is how much space something takes up and mass cannot be created nor destroyed
If a plasticine is change to another shape will it have the same mass?
it will not change as the plasticine is still the same plasticine.Therefore,the plasticine mass will also not change.
Why is the mass of an object the same of the moon as it is on Earth?
Because the shape and size of the object dont change, only the gravity affecting it
Why can your weight change if you go to another planet but your mass will not change?
Your mass is the amount of stuff that makes up our body. It can only change if you either remove something from your body or add something to it. Your weight is the amount of force you experience from gravity. It depends on both your mass and the strength of the gravity. Since the strength of gravity varies between the planets, so will your weight.
Is this true or false the weight of a person can change but the mass stays the same?
That is very true. The mass of something is definite, "the amount of stuff in an object"; However, the weight of something is the pull of gravity on an object. Someone or something's weight can change if, for example, they go to the Moon, or Mars, or any other celestial body with different levels of gravity.
Does the mass change?
if the shape changes the mass changes
Does shaping a ball of dough into a loaf change the shape and mass?
changes the shape but not the mass
What is something that doesn't have definite shape or volume mass or container?
They all have definite shape ,volume ,and definite mass. A solid is a figure something that doesn't change when you move it like if you move a table out of a classroom it wouldn't. A liquid takes the place of its container.
Does the shape of an object change its density?
Changing the shape CAN change the density. If you change it into a smaller shape, then you increase the density. However the mass will not change.
Why does changing shape of an object dose not change the density?
Changing the shape CAN change the density. If you change it into a smaller shape, then you increase the density. However the mass will not change.
If something dissolves into something else will it change mass?
The mass of the solution will be equal to the mass of the solute plus the mass of the solvent. However, the total mass does not change.
Does food change its shape as it moves through the digestive system?
Food normally becomes a shapeless mass as it is digested, although if you have swallowed something that you cannot digest, it will retain its shape.
Solid matter does not change what?
mass doesn't change
Can you change the mass of a substance if you distort its shape?
The mass of a substance is not dependent upon the shape of the substance - it is directly related only to volume through its density. Therefore, just because you squash a cube of something into a flat oval, the mass of the substance shouldn't change because the overall volume hasn't changed.
What is a solid and a liquid?
a solid is something that hols its shape and a liquid is something that can change its shape.
What properties stay the same during physical and chemical change?
mass mass
When a substance undergoes a phase change it still has a definite A mass B shape C volume D temperature?
mass - the mass does not change
