See the answer below.
Explanation:
Fire has three major components:
- Heat
- Smoke
- Gases ( in form of CO, CO2 etc)
If the victim had died as a result of the fire, he/he would have inhaled smoke and hot gases from the fire. These components would have resulted in traces of burns and soot deposition in the trachea and lungs as well as traces of CO in the blood of the victim.
If the analysis of the victim's corpse does not reflect some of the results above, it can be effectively concluded that the victim has been dead before the fire.
<em>The single most important indicator of death by the fire would be the presence of CO in the blood of the victim's corpse. All others might be to a less significant degrees.</em>

Explanation:
To balance an equation, the moles of one element on one side of the equation should be the same as those on the other side of the equation. This is because (as a law of thermodynamics), in a chemical reaction, the matter is not destroyed nor created - atoms are only rearranged.
I'm not sure where the question is here. Yes it is true that there is a limited amount of matter on Earth...
