Mass is the amount of 'stuff' that a thing has, so assuming that when you melt a solid part of it isn't vaporised, then the amount of stuff remains the same, even if it's changed it's form.

Mass is measured by weighing a thing within a gravitational field (with no other forces acting on it), not volume or shape.

How does the mass of a frozen Popsicle compare to the mass of the same Popsicle if it melted?

The mass of a frozen Popsicle and the mass of the same Popsicle after it has melted remain the same. This is because mass is conserved during the phase change from solid to liquid; the water molecules simply transition from a solid state to a liquid state. Therefore, regardless of its form, the total mass of the Popsicle does not change.


When gold is melted does it weigh less?

No, when gold is melted it does not weigh less. Its mass remains the same, but its volume may change depending on its state (solid or liquid).


How much solid wax makes one ounce of melted wax?

One ounce. No mass is lost in the phase change from solid to liquid wax.


What happens to the mass when 5 grams of gold is melted?

When 5 grams of gold is melted, the mass remains the same. Melting gold is a physical change that only affects its state from solid to liquid without changing its chemical composition.


What should the mass of the liquid butter be once it is melted?

Yes because the butter can be drunk. Melted butter is a liquid simply because it has exceeded its melting point. It become solid again when it cools to the temperature below its melting point.

Can melted butter or fat change back to a solid butter or fat?

Animal fats such as lard from pork or dripping from beef can be melted and will become a solid again when they go cold, however dairy fats such as butter will still return to a solid, but never to it's original 'creamy' solid state once it has been melted.


Does melted ice represent a chemical change?

no its a physical change because its changing from a solid to a liquid and its still water!


Observe and thinkof ways on how you can change these solid?

Generally a solid become a liquid by melting or a gas by sublimation; but not all the solids can be melted.


When an ice cube melts does it have the same mass as before?

Yes, the mass of the melted ice cube remains the same as the original ice cube. When ice melts, it undergoes a phase change from a solid to a liquid, but the total amount of matter remains constant.


Can melted butter turn back to a solid?

Yes it can ; anything which has been melted can be solidified by cooling it down and will change back to its normal state.
