Which is true about the particles in a solid as the solid starts to melt?
Mass is conserved, and the particles continue to vibrate in place.
Mass is lost when the particles start moving and are pulled closer together.
Mass is conserved when the particles start breaking away and sliding past each other.
Mass is gained when the particles start to move freely in all directions.

On a hot day, a puddle dries up. Which statement is true?
The water in the puddle evaporates because the water changes to a gas at a temperature lower than the boiling point, and the mass of the water is conserved.
