The balanced equation \( \text{CH} + 2\text{O}_2 \rightarrow \text{CO}_2 + 2\text{H}_2\text{O} \) demonstrates the law of conservation of matter by showing that the number of atoms, type of elements, and the mass of reactants and products are equal.
Therefore, the correct answer is: **The number of atoms, type of elements, and mass of reactants and products are equal.**
Therefore, the correct answer is: **The number of atoms, type of elements, and mass of reactants and products are equal.**
