true
D. always equal to the total mass of the products.
False
The law of conservation of matter states that in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed.
The mass of reactants is equal to the mass of products.
The law of conservation of mass tells us that the mass of the products will equal the mass of the reactants in a chemical reaction.
The law of conservation of mass states that in a chemical reaction the mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the product.
The Law of Conservation of Mass applies to chemical changes. When considering a chemical change this would mean that the total mass of all of the reactants in the chemical reaction is equal to the total mass of products in the chemical reaction.
Atoms cannot be added or lost in a chemical reaction.

Law of Conservation of Matter.
I suppose that this is a biochemical reaction.
D. always equal to the total mass of the products.
"Conservation" in chemical reactions referrs to something that is the same before and after the reaction. When writing a chemical equation, balancing the equation represents the 'conservation of atoms' and the 'conservation of mass'. Add all the atoms of each individual type on the reactant side of the arrow and, individually, the number of atoms on the product side for each type of atom will be the same. Atoms cannot be created or destroyed by a chemical reaction.
