This is the balanced chemical equation for a reaction between acetic acid (in vinegar) and sodium bicarbonate (in baking soda). C, H,O, + NaHCo, NaC, H,O, + H2O + CO2 Acetic acid Water Sodium bicarbonate Sodium acetate Carbon dioxide How does this balanced chemical equation represent the conservation of matter in the chemical reaction? A. The amount of matter on the left-hand side is the same as the amount of matter on the right-hand side. B. There are more compounds on the right-hand side than there are on the left-hand side. C. The coefficients are the same for each compound represented in the reactants and products. D. There are more carbon (C) atoms represented on the left-hand side than on the right-hand side.
