No, it is not true; the law remain valid.

When the temperature of a liquid is increased will the mass increase?

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


Why doesn't rusting violate the law of conservation of mass?

Why should it violate it? Atoms are simply rearranged. No new atoms are created, no atoms are destroyed. The rust will have more mass than the original iron (or whatever metal is rusting), but that's because oxygen atoms from the atmosphere are added. Add: This does not violate the law of conservation of mass, because the mass of the rust is the combined mass of the iron and the oxygen in the atmosphere that reacted to form the rust.


How are energy and mass conserved by living systems?

Not quite sure what you mean; let's just say that living systems don't require any extraordinary efforts to conserve energy and mass, because that's what they do naturally, i.e., "be conserved". There is no known way to violate conservation of energy or mass.


Two scientists claim they can use a chemical reaction to make matter how are they wrong?

This would violate the law of conservation of matter/mass, which states that in a closed system, mass is constant. This means that matter can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. In other words, the mass of the products equals the mass of the reactants.


Can mass be transformed into energy and vice versa and if so why does this not follow the conservation of mass and energy?

Transformation of energy does follow the conservation of mass and energy. When a body gains potential energy, it loses kinetic energy and viceversa. Therefore total energy always remains constant.

Does rusting violate the law of conservation of mass?

no Nothing violates that law.


Does fusion violate the law of conservation of matter?

No, fusion does not violate the law of conservation of matter. In fusion reactions, the total mass of the reactants is equal to the total mass of the products, as mass is converted into energy according to Einstein's famous equation, Emc2.


Does Rust violate the law of conservation of mass rust?

no Nothing violates that law.


When a hydrate compound is heated and appears to decrease in mass does it violate the law of conservation of mass?

No, it does not violate the law of conservation of mass. The reason for this is that the decrease in mass of the compound can be found in the mass of the water that was lost upon heating. Thus, total mass remains constant.


Does burning wood violate the law of conservation of energy?

No, nothing can violate the law of conservation of energy, it's a law! Energy can convert to mass, and mass can convert to energy, but the overall total of mass and energy in the universe is constant.

Why is mass of a rusted nail would be greater than the mass of a rusted nail before it rusted.?

it is very simple actually because believe it or not rust has its own mass and after the nail rusts its mass increases


Which has more mass a rusted bolt or a non rusted bolt?

Left intact the rusted bolt because it has the added mass of the Oxygen. Once cleaned up it will be lighter because it has lost mass in the form of iron atoms in the Iron Oxide molecules.


Can three atoms of calcium react to produce six atoms of calcium?

No: That would violate the law of conservation of mass and require creation of new atoms, which no chemical reaction can achieve.


Why is the mass of a rusted nail greater than the mass of the nail before it rusted?

When a nail rusts, it undergoes a chemical reaction with oxygen in the air to form iron oxide (rust). This process adds additional mass to the nail in the form of the iron oxide. Therefore, the mass of the rusted nail is greater than the mass of the nail before it rusted.


Does increasing of mass of rusty iron violate the low of conservation of mass?

No, because the principle of conservation of matter states that during a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed. The total mass of reactants MUST equal the total mass of products.
