Best Answer

matter is never destroyed by

reactions created by chemical

More specifically, both mass and energy cannot be created or destroyed in any chemical reaction, but mass and energy are equivalent under Einstein's theory of special relativity, so energy can change to mass and vice-versa in the ratio E = mc2
