• elements stay the same after the reaction
it shows that all compounds remain bonded after the reaction
it shows that no atoms have been gained or lost during the reaction

Answer 1

A balanced chemical equation demonstrates the Law of Conservation of Mass by showing that no atoms have been gained or lost during the reaction. This means that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation, indicating that mass is conserved in the reaction.
