Which is the best estimate for the mass of a duck?
If you have a poato with a given mass and turn it into potato chips it will weigh less as water has been driven off in the cooking process. As weight and mass are proportional at any given location it has less mass in its cooked form.
Since you can make many potato chips out of one potato, obviously a whole potato has more mass than one potato chip.

A potato will decrease in mass if salt (sodium chloride) is applied to it. The salt will absorb water which is contained in the potato.
