The temperature of a substance has no effect on its mass.

UNLESS ... part of it evaporates and blows away, or melts in a puddle and runs off the edge of the table.

As long as all of the substance stays there, its mass doesn't change, no matter how hot or cold it gets.

What happens to density if an objects mass remains constant but its volume is increased?

Nothing. If the volume is increased, the mass also has to increase.


What happens to density of a substance during thermal expansion?

Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to change in temperature. During thermal expansion, the density of a substance decreases as its volume increases. Volume is the space occupied by a body. So, when a substance expands on heating, it will occupy more space or will have more volume. But its mass does not change because the amount of matter contained in a body cannot change. Therefore, mass divided by increased volume gives a decreased density.

No. That would violate the Newtonian principle of Conservation of Mass.


What happens to particles when condesing?

When particles are condensing in a substance, they combine into fewer, larger particles. These larger particles become the liquid's mass at its condensation or boiling temperature.
