Question
Chapter 18, Problem 7A
(a)
To determine
The change in mass of a loaf of bread if it is squeezed.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The quantity of matter contained in a substance is known as mass. SI unit of mass is kg.
When a loaf of a bread is squeezed its mass does not change. Since the number of atoms which forms the bread will remains same after squeezing also. But, its volume got decreased.
Conclusion:
The loaf of bread when squeezed, the mass of bread does not change.
