Scientific laws explain observations and experiments that are verified and considered very high forms of scientific intelligence. The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system cannot be created or destroyed in an ordinary chemical reaction; rather conserved. In an easier explanation‚ everything you start with‚ you must end with. Although‚ the substance can look or be shaped differently from the original. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter an object contains. An example

Alternative fuels‚ or at least the concept of it‚ has been around since the early days of the automobile. Alternative fuels such as biodiesel‚ ethanol and methanol‚ have been produced and used on a small scale for decades. They are now being rediscovered due to the rising cost of oil and the instability of world politics. The discovery of these fuels changed the face of the planet‚ but since day one people have looked for other fuels that improved over the course of history. Alternative fuel vehicles
