c. What is the equation for calculating gravitational potential energy on the Earth? (1 point)



d. What is the equation for calculating kinetic energy (1 point)

Answer 1

Matter cannot be created or destroyed.

Further explanation

Conservation of mass applies to a closed system, where the masses before and after the reaction are the same

Or

Conservation of mass means:

In a closed/isolated system, the total mass of the substance before the reaction will be equal to the total mass of the reaction product.

So what changes is the form, into a liquid, gas or solid

while what does not change is the mass
