What is the law of conservation of mass?

a)

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of ////////// states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. This law means that energy can neither be created nor destroyed

b)

The law of conservation of /////////// says that in chemical reactions, the total mass of the products must equal the total mass of the reactants.

c)

Conservation of /////////// is a fundamental law of physics which states that the momentum of a system is constant if there are no external forces acting on the system.
