If a cube of jello is cut into two pieces the density of the pieces do not change.
21 cuts required to cut a cube into 504 identical pieces.
equal the density of any other piece, assuming that the original cube was made of the same uniform substance.

If no cut intersects any previous cuts, then you can just slice it into 14 pieces.

Assuming you mean what property of the two pieces added together changes after the cut is made, it has to be surface area. The total mass of the two pieces remains the same, as does the volume, and obviously color, opacity, and other such properties remain the same, but surface area increases by 2 times the cross section of the cut.
No. Each piece of the cube would have the same density.
no that is a physical property change, not a chemical property.
If you cut a cube of jello in half, it will still have the same total volume. The only thing that will change is the total surface area. Assuming that the piece is a perfect cube, and that it has been divided into two equal pieces, the net surface area of the two resulting cubes would be: Original: SA= 6(h^2) New: SA= 2[2(h^2) + 1/2 (4)(h^2)] Difference: [2(h^2) + 1/2 (4)(h^2)] - 6(h^2) = 8(h^2) - 6(h^2) = 2(h^2) Where: SA = Surface Area h = the length of each side So, if the original cube was 2x2x2 cm, then it's surface area would be 24 cm^2; when it is divided into two, the net surface area of the two pieces together would be 32 cm^2

No it is just putting it into a different form. for example if you had some jello, and then you cut it up to make a cube that wouldn't be a chemical change either. see?

If you put a ice cube in a pan in a warm room the two physical properties that will change would be shape. Another property would be density.

It is possible, but the answer depends on the interlocking shapes and the sizes of the pieces.
