How do chemical equations illustrate that atoms are conserved?

Answer 1

Well, they do if the chemical equation is stoichiometrically balanced...

And what does #"stoichiometrically balanced"# mean? It means that for every reactant particle, there is a corresponding product, or for every gram of reactant there is a gram of product. Electronic charge is conserved AS WELL as mass...
