Question

Suppose measure the mass of an orange. Then you peel the orange and separate out the slices. If you measure the orange peel and all the slices, will that mass equal the mass of the whole orange?

yes

no

Answer 1

The mass of the orange after it has been cut into pieces will still remain the same as the mass of the whole orange.

Let us recall that the law of conservation of mass states that, mass can neither be created nor destroyed but is converted from one form to another. In accordance with this law of conservation of mass. The mass of the orange must remain the same after it has been cut in pieces.

Hence, If the mass of an orange is measured after it has been cut into pieces, the mass of the orange after it has been cut into pieces will still remain the same as the mass of the whole orange.
