Matter and energy can neither be created nor destroyed. This is one of the most self defeating statement you have been teaching to your children. If matter can not be created, "it is not created". That means that matter does not exist. Vise versa, if it exists, it is "created". If it is "created" once it can be "created" again and again. If it is "created", it can be "destroyed" also. If it can be "destroyed" once, it can be "destroyed" again and again. The laws of nature are universal. That means they are never an one time event. So when the hydrogen get combined with oxygen, you get water. From the Uranium you get the lead after the decomposition. The phenomena is universal. It was repeated many times and going to get repeated many times. So you can not say that the matter was created once for all and now it can not be created again. As such the logic is complete here only. Here is an probable explanation. You can create the negative and positive electric charge by rubbing ebonite rod on wool. You can not destroy the negative charge with out the positive charge. Like wise you can not destroy the matter with out antimatter. But you do not find "enough" of antimatter in the universe. You can not find "enough" negative charge on the wool or "enough" of positive charge on the ebonite rod. So this is purely "the hypothesis" and very little but probably "enough" proof is there to support the same. (*) So you can not have the particle of matter, with out the corresponding particle of the antimatter in the space. So both are created at a time and annihilated at a time. This is subjected to the equation of Einstein, that is, E = mc 2. So some of the matter exist as energy and some of the antimatter exist as anti energy. ( You get energy from matter. So it fallows that you get "anti energy" from the anti matter.) So particles of matter and antimatter are created in the space at the same time. (**)(***) Think of the "Big bang". You had dense plasma in the initial thousands of years. Why all the particles of antimatter were not annihilated in that dense plasma? So the particles of matter and antimatter are created in the space around you, albeit in very little quantity, as on today also. It is the property of the space to produce particles and antiparticles, from nothing. That means, you get "equal" "energy" and "anti energy" from nothing. Both get precipitated to particles of matter and anti matter. Particles of matter get attracted to each other and particles of anti matter get attracted to each other due to gravitational force. It fallows that the particles of matter and antimatter will "repel" each other due to "anti gravity" effect. (****) So You have the universe of "matter and energy". It fallows that you have the universe made up of "antimatter and anti energy". They have been "Repelling" to each other due to "anti gravity" effect. So the universe made of antimatter has lost in the space. There may be many such universes made up of matter and anti matter. They may be forced to come closer to each other and annihilate each others. This may happen after events like Big bangs.So in the universe made up of matter, the matter can not be destroyed. As there is no "enough" antimatter to go for annihilation. In the universe made of antimatter, you can not destroy the same. as there is no "enough" of matter to annihilate the same. So you are told and made to believe that matter can neither be created nor destroyed. So the process of formation of matter and antimatter is not one sided. The process of annihilation also go hand in hand, probably.

(*) When you collide the electron and positron with great speed, they have enough kinetic energy and kinetic anti energy to give you two gamma rays. ( Logically one of them will be anti gamma ray.) When you collide proton and anti proton with great speed, they have enough kinetic energy and anti energy to give you electrons and positrons. So the matter and anti matter probably completely annihilated.
(**) It fallows that you get one electron with every proton. You get one positron with every electron and one anti proton with every proton. That means when you get one pair of electron and proton, you get one pair of positron and anti proton, at the "same" time. You get one neutron with every anti neutron.

(***) It fallows that in the universe made of anti matter, you have the same elements made of antimatter. They have the same chemical properties and chemical reactions.

(****) The gravitational force is directly proportional the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the masses. It fallows that the "anti gravitational force or the force of repulsion is directly proportional to the product of mass and anti mass ( or matter and antimatter) and inversely proportional to square of distance between them."

Matter can be both created and destroyed?

Matter cannot be created or destroyed according to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. However, matter can undergo physical or chemical changes where its form or state can change, but the total amount of matter remains constant.


What is the law that states that atoms can't be created or destroyed but can be rearranged?

The law you are referring to is the Law of Conservation of Mass. It states that in a closed system, matter cannot be created or destroyed, only rearranged through chemical reactions or physical changes.


In a chemical reaction does the amount of matter increase or decrease?

In a chemical reaction, the amount of matter remains the same. This is known as the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction; it can only be rearranged.


How does mass and matter stay the same?

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. Similarly, according to the law of conservation of matter, matter cannot be created or destroyed in a closed system. These laws demonstrate that mass and matter remain constant throughout physical or chemical changes.


What principle that states that matter cannot be created nor destroyed is?

The principle that states matter cannot be created nor destroyed is the law of conservation of mass. This scientific principle is also known as the law of conservation of matter. It states that in a closed system, the total mass remains constant before and after a chemical reaction or physical change.


Can matter vanish completely?

According to the law of conservation of mass, matter cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed into different forms. Therefore, matter cannot vanish completely.
