The correct statement is:
The law of conservation of mass provided justification for the theory of combustion.
This law, formulated by Antoine Lavoisier, states that mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. It provided a fundamental understanding that during combustion, the reactants (such as fuel and oxygen) are transformed into products (such as carbon dioxide and water) without any loss of mass.
