State whether the following statement is true or false.

No matter can ever be created or destroyed, and its amount of mass will remain the same over time.
A. True
B. False
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

The statement is a definition for the Law of Conservation of Mass, sometimes called the Law of the Conservation of Matter. This means all matter, whether a solid, liquid, or gas, cannot be destroyed.

Matter can be changed into a different state by adding or removing heat, but the matter cannot be destroyed. For example, the matter that makes up an ice cube can change into water when it melts, and then evaporate into a gas.  

The molecules are in a different state, but have not been destroyed.
