Answer:

The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations.

According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.

The law of conservation of mass is useful for a number of calculations and can be used to solve for unknown masses, such the amount of gas consumed or produced during a reaction.
