Answer and Explanation:
The postulate of Dalton's atomic theory that "Atoms are indivisible particles which can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction" is the result of law of conservation of mass.
The law of conservation of mass says that matter is not created or destroyed in a closed system. That means if we have a chemical reaction, the amount of each element must be the same in the starting materials and the products. We use the law of conservation of mass every time we balance equations!
