Why can't an element be changed into another element by chemical means?

Possible answers: Law of Conservation of Matter states that the elements in the reactants, have to have the same identity and quantity of elements i the products. 

OR 

The definition of a chemical reaction is the rearrange the elements in compounds to form new products using electrons, NOT changing the nucleus of the atom which would change the identity of the element.

What is wrong with the following statement: The sun can be classified as matter, because we can see the sun and we can feel the heat coming from the sun.

The definition of matter is anything that has mass and volume. The sun can be classified as matter, because it is made of atoms of hydrogen and helium, and atoms have weight and volume.
