#"Is not mass conserved?"#

Explanation:

Well, let us see. There are #28*g+114*g# of reactants, and there are #142*g# of product. And so mass is conserved

#"And also charge is conserved."# The reactants are electrically neutral, and also the products are electrically neutral.

And thus the reaction follows the rules of #"conservation of mass"#, and #"conservation of charge"# which are followed by ALL chemical reactions.

#"Garbage in equal garbage out"#............
