The correct statement about the equation is:

**Mass is conserved because the number of each atom in the reactants equals the number of each atom in the products.**

This reflects the law of conservation of mass, which states that in a chemical reaction, the total mass of the reactants equals the total mass of the products, implying that the number of each type of atom remains the same on both sides of the equation.
