Science Common Sense

191 - What is the significance of the Law of Conservation of Mass?

The Law of Conservation of Mass is a very important idea in science. It means that matter (or mass) can't be created or destroyed, only changed into different forms.

Imagine you have a toy box full of Legos. You can build a castle, a car, or a robot using those Legos. But you can't just magically make more Legos appear or disappear - you have the same number of Legos, just in different forms.

This idea helps us understand how things work in the world, from chemical reactions to space and the universe. It's a fundamental rule that helps us learn and discover new things.
