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.


How do physical and chemical changes affect mass?

law of consevation of mass states that the total mass before a chemical reaction is the same as the total mass after the chemical reaction


Is decompositon a chemical property?

A physical property is part of the make up of something that has a physical mass. No decomposing is not a physical property but rather both a physical change and a chemical change hence changing the chemical properties . The physical change is when the mass changes due to the brake down of the chemical and physical properties.


Does a chemical change effect mass?

Yes, a chemical change does affect mass. This is because during a chemical reaction, new bonds are formed or broken, leading to a rearrangement of atoms. This can result in either an increase or decrease in mass.


How Does the total amount of matter in a substance increase decrease or stay the same after a chemical or physical change?

The total amount of matter in a substance remains the same after both chemical and physical changes. This is known as the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction or physical change, only rearranged. So, the total mass of the substances before and after the change will be equal.

Is mass a chemical change or physical change?

Mass is neither a physical nor chemical change; however, it is a physical property of matter.


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.

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.
