Due to the mummy’s sarcophagus not being tightly secured, this created an open system. In open systems, matter can both enter and escape. The mummy’s sarcophagus had a chemical reaction with the air. Thus, causing the mummy’s overall mass to decrease. While the mummy’s mass decrease suggests that the LCM was not followed, the LCM is ALWAYS followed as matter cannot he created or destroyed.
