The law of conservation of matter states that matter is neither created nor destroyed. An example of this is a simple combustion reaction of methane. CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O. There is 1 carbon, four oxygen's and four hydrogens on each side, thus showing conservation of matter.

What states that matter is not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction?

You are confusing the law of conservation of matter/mass with the law of conservation of energy. The law of conservation of matter/mass states that in a closed system matter is neither created nor destroyed. During a chemical reaction matter is rearranged, it doesn't change forms (energy can change forms). The atoms in the products are the same atoms that were in the reactants.
