conservation of mass

A principle in classical physics stating that the total mass of an isolated system is unchanged by interaction of its parts.

conservation of mass

(Physics / General Physics) the principle that the total mass of any isolated system is constant and is independent of any chemical and physical changes taking place within the system

conservation of mass

A principle of classical physics stating that the total mass of a closed system is unchanged by interaction of its parts. The principle does not hold under Special Relativity, since mass and energy can be converted into one another.
