Which of the following statements best defines the law of conservation of mass?

• Mass cannot be created but it can be destroyed under extreme pressures.

• Mass cannot be conserved during a chemical reaction; a little bit of mass is always lost.

• The mass of a closed system cannot change over time; mass cannot be created nor destroyed.

• When added to a system, energy can destroy mass.

A science teacher lit a candle and described to his students that some of the wax is burning while some of the wax is melting. Student A states that these are both physical changes. Students B states that these are both chemical changes. Which statement BEST describes the students' conclusions?

• Student A is correct.

• Student B is correct.

• Both are incorrect, because burning wax is a chemical change and melting wax is a physical change.

• Both are incorrect, because burning wax is a physical change and melting wax is a chemical change.
