any ideas i can write about conservation of mass
There was this one Physics teacher at MIT who made an insane video with that in it. I recommend you try to find it, I think it's called something like For The Love of Physics. It's about an hour long but it's worth it in my opinion.
How's it coming along? Have you learned about the basic applications of the law?
Alright, so basically no mass can be lost nor destroyed. That is the definition of the law. By this law, if I take wood and burn it, I'm not actually getting rid of the wood forever, but converting it with a chemical change into heat, charcoal, and ashes.
Make a little more sense?
A better thing to think of when it comes to this law is water. Water can be so important to think of because it occurs in all 3 forms of solid, liquid, and gas naturally. So, say I boil some water. While the heat from the stove is transferred throughout the pot, and into the water, some of it becomes a little too hot and so some water will evaporate into the atmosphere. That's the smoke you see above a pot of water when you boil it.
No problem!
