The correct statement based on the Law of Conservation of Energy is:
**Energy cannot be created or destroyed by ordinary chemical or physical means.**
This principle denotes that the total energy in a closed system remains constant, though it may change forms (e.g., from potential energy to kinetic energy) but the total amount of energy remains the same. The other statements are not accurate in describing the law.
