The correct statement that explains how matter is conserved in chemical reactions is:
**The number of atoms in the reactants is always equal to the number of atoms in the products.**
This statement reflects the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction; therefore, the total number of atoms must remain constant.
**The number of atoms in the reactants is always equal to the number of atoms in the products.**
