Does mass increase during a nuclear change?
No, mass does not increase during a nuclear change. According to the principle of mass-energy equivalence (E=mc^2), the mass of the reactants is converted into energy during a nuclear change.
What property stays the same during physical change chemical change?
mass
What does it mean to say that mass is conserved during a physical change?
Saying that mass is conserved during a physical change means that the total mass of the substances involved remains constant before and after the change. This principle is a fundamental aspect of the law of conservation of mass, which states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction or physical change, only transformed into different forms.
During nuclear fission, mass is converted into what?
During nuclear fission, mass is converted into energy.
What properties stay the same during physical and chemical change?
mass mass
Mass does not change during a chemical change how about for a physical change?
Physical changes are like cutting paper. The mass does not change. Chemical changes do not change total mass either. If you put a candle in a sealed container so that you may measure the total mass of the candle and the air before burning, then light the candle electrically but keep everything sealed, the total mass after burning will still be the same. But if you measure only the candle, then its mass has changed. So the mass of one single 'ingredient' will change during a chemical change.
What happens to mass during chemical and physical change?
it stays da same
Is mass a chemical change or physical change?
Mass is neither a physical nor chemical change; however, it is a physical property of matter.
What happens to the mass when a physical change happens?
During a physical change, such as melting or boiling, the mass remains constant. The atoms and molecules rearrange themselves, but none are added or lost, so the total mass remains unchanged.
Does mass change in a physical change?
In this case mass doesn't change.
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.
Why isn't a change in mass an indicator of chemical change?
Neither a chemical nor a physical change results in a change in mass. According to the law of conservation of matter/mass, matter can neither be created nor destroyed. This law holds true for physical and chemical changes.
