How does the total mass of the products of a chemical reaction compare with the total mass of the reactants?

The masses should be exactly the same because according to the Law of Conservation of mass, no mass should be gained or lost

They're equal. After a chemical reaction occurs to the product the reactant still has the same mass as the product. This is because of the Law of Conservation- matter is neither created or destroyed.

No mass is lost in chemical reactions, as the nuclei remain intact. Therefore, it is the same (mass of reactants=mass of products)
