Q73.If mass-energy equivalence is taken into account, when water is cooled to form ice, the mass of water should (1) increase (2) remain unchanged (3) decrease (4) first increase then decrease

What This Question Tests

This question tests the understanding that when energy is released (as during freezing), there is a corresponding decrease in mass according to mass-energy equivalence.

Concepts Tested

E=mc²Latent heatPhase transition

Formulas Used
