Total momentum in an isolated system does not change. The law of physics. The law of conservation of momentum explains that momentum is neither lost of gained. That means that there is a quantity, called momentum, that is conserved.

The total amount of energy before and after a chemical reaction is the same .Thus energy is what?
Therefore energy is conserved.
What is also true of the rearrangement of atoms?
The amount of matter is conserved.
When a pendulum swings the size of the swing gradually reduces with time until the pendulum stops explain how this can be possible if energy is conserved?
Energy is conserved in an isolated system, meaning since energy cannot be created or destroyed, the amount of energy in the system is the same. The point is, what is the 'system' in a certain scenario. Even if the pendulum was in an isolated room, that doesn't mean the pendulum will swing forever, because energy is constsntly lost to the environment, due to the friction with the air. But while energy is lost from the pendulum, energy is gained by the surrounding air molecules (also isolated), and thus energy in the system is conserved. Eventually the pendulum's kinetic energy will be zero, having lost too much to be able to make it move.
He total amount of energy before and after a chemical reaction is the same. Therefore energy is .?
Conserved.
Does the total amount of momentum stay the same when two objects interact?
Yes. Momentum is conserved.
Is it true or false that because energy is conserved as the amount of one type of energy increases the amount of another type of energy must decrease?
That is true.
What explains the increased density of material deeper into the mantle?
The increased amount of iron deeper into the mantle explains it.
What remains constant in an isolated system?
An isolated system is one in which no external forces act. answer2. Energy and mass remains constant in an isolated system.
What is the law of conversation of mass?
the law of conversation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. meaning that the total mass in a chemical reaction doesn't change.
To say that electric charge is conserved means that no case has ever been found where?
... where the total amount of charge changed.
The law of conservation of energy states when one form of energy is converted into another?
In that case, the total amount of energy is conserved.
What does 'law and conservation of energy' mean?
It means that energy is conserved; that is, the total amount of energy will neither increase nor decrease.
