The Law of Conservation of Mass
The Law of Conservation of Mass
In any chemical reaction atoms are neither created nor destroyed.
The law of conservation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. This means that the total mass of the reactants before a reaction must equal the total mass of the products after the reaction.
Conservation of matter means, matter can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can be changed from one form to another.
Mass is equivalent to energy. Neither can be destroyed or created, only changed from one form to another.
chemical reactions....actually it is matter (mass)
When something is neither created nor destroyed, it is said to be a CONSERVED quantity.
law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Energy is neither created or destroyed.
32g. Matter is neither created nor destroyed and all that
1st law
Mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can change from one state to another state. In a nuclear reaction (power station, nuclear bomb) small quantities of mass are converted into energy. The sun and most stars are routinely steadily decreasing in mass as it is converted into radiation.
