A certain chemical reaction experiences a 7.50 x 10-7 kilogram loss in mass. If this mass were to be totally converted to energy, what would be the magnitude of that energy.

Respuesta :

Answer:

E=6.75×10¹⁰J

Explanation:

Given data

Mass (m)=7.50×10⁻⁷kg

To find

Energy (E) = ?

Solution

From Albert Einstein’s theory of special relativity

E = mc²........eq(1)  

Where

E is energy

m is mass

c is speed of light which 3.0×10⁸m/s

put values in eq(1) we get

E=(7.50×10⁻⁷kg)×( 3.0×10⁸m/s)²

E=6.75×10¹⁰J
