Although atoms can be rearranged in physical or chemical changes they are never destroyed or created.
Explanation:
The law of conservation of mass states that in a chemical reaction mass is neither created nor destroyed. The carbon atom changes from a solid structure to gas but its mass does not change. Similarly, the law of conservation of energy states that the amount of energy is neither created nor destroyed. Within a chemical reaction, only the atoms present in reactants can end up in products. No new atoms are created and no atoms are destroyed. In a chemical reaction, reactants contact each other, bonds between atoms in the reactants are broken and atoms rearrange and form new bonds to make products.
