The equation that best represents the conservation of matter is:

**6H₂O + 6CO₂ → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂**

This equation shows that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides, which is in accordance with the law of conservation of matter. Each type of atom (C, H, O) is conserved, meaning that the mass of the reactants equals the mass of the products.
