What supports the idea that mass is conserved in a reaction that produces a gas as a product?

The law of conservation of mass states that mass cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, only rearranged. When a gas is produced as a product in a reaction, the total mass of the reactants before the reaction is equal to the total mass of the products after the reaction, supporting the idea of mass conservation. This is because the total number of atoms remains the same, even though the state of matter may change.
