There can be a small amount of matter exchange with outer space. On the other hand, some radioactive isotopes can decay, and convert to other isotopes. This will increase the amount of one element, and reduce the amount of another one.

Matter can't be creater or destroyed but could the amounts of some elements in earth's crust decrease or increase?

The Laws of Conservation of Mass and Energy state that those quantities can nor be created or destroyed.However it is known by the Einstein's Theory of Relativity (E=MC^2) that mass and energy are related. Mass can can be converted to energy, in regards to radioactive elements. xddf


How do the state of laws apply to changes of state?

When there is a change in state, mass doesn't increase or decrease (mass cannot be created nor destroyed). When there is a change in state, energy doesn't increase or decrease (energy cannot be created nor destroyed), although some of the energy may be lost as heat during the process.


How does the law of conservation of mass and energy apply to changes of state?

Well, when there is a change in state, mass doesn't increase or decrease (mass cannot be created nor destroyed). When there is a change in state, energy doesn't increase or decrease (energy cannot be created nor destroyed) although some of the energy may be lost as heat during the process.

In a chemical reaction does the amount of matter increase or decrease?

In a chemical reaction, the amount of matter remains the same. This is known as the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction; it can only be rearranged.


Could the amount of some elements in earths crust decrease?

Yes, the amount of some elements in Earth's crust could decrease over time due to various processes such as erosion, weathering, and subduction where materials are taken out of the crust and recycled back into the mantle. Additionally, human activities like mining and resource extraction can deplete certain elements at a faster rate than they can be naturally replenished.
