No. Mass is a measure of how much matter is in an object, and that does not change when the matter changes states. The matter will either contract or expand, depending on the current state and the state to be reached, but that does not change how much matter is in the object.

Does the mass of a substance change after a chemical reaction changes the substance from a liquid to a solid?

No. According the the law of conservation of Mass, it would be physically impossible for the mass of the substance to change. However, it is possible for the volume (amount of space taken up by the substance) to change, as well as it's weight (if gasses are released or molecules in the air are involved).


What happens to the overall mass of a substance when it changes state?

the mass does not change because in science class today we learned when you measure an ice cube (mass) it is the same mass of ice melted!


How is the mass of a substance affected by physical changes like breaking apart?

no change in mass


When you heat a cool substance does the mass or volume change?

No, the mass and volume stay the same but the shape changes. Changes in state never change it's mass but if it changes to gas, the volume is unmeasurable.


What properties of a substance does not change when the amount of the substance changes 1 mass 2 volume 3 temperature?

How a physical property such as mass or texture can change without causing a change in substance?

These physical changes doesn't influence the chemical formula of the substance.


What doesn't change with changes in gravity?

Nothing does, because there is no such thing as "an unbalanced force",so that scenario can never occur.When an unbalanced group of forces acts on an object, the speed or directionof the object's motion can change, but its mass does not change.The mass of the object.


Is the specific gravity of substance the same when the substance is in the solid state?

No. Roughly speaking, "specific gravity" is equivalent to density, i.e., mass divided by volume. If a substance changes its state, its volume will change, but its mass won't change - therefore, the density - the result of the division - will also change.

What is the effect on a chemical change on the mass of matter?

chemical changes disturbs the structure of the substance and hence reduce the mass....thx...with best regards..
