Change in Mass in Nuclear Reaction Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Mass Defect = Mass Reactant-Mass Product
∆m = mreactant-m
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Mass Defect - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass Defect is the difference between the actual atomic mass and the predicted mass.
Mass Reactant - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass Reactant is both a property of a physical body and a measure of its resistance to acceleration.
Mass Product - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass Product is both a property of a physical body and a measure of its resistance to acceleration.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Mass Reactant: 60 Kilogram --> 60 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Mass Product: 55 Kilogram --> 55 Kilogram No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
∆m = mreactant-m --> 60-55
Evaluating ... ...
∆m = 5
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
5 Kilogram -->3.0110683255E+27 Atomic Mass Unit (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
3.0110683255E+27 3E+27 Atomic Mass Unit <-- Mass Defect
(Calculation completed in 00.007 seconds)

∆m = mreactant-m

What can change in a nuclear reaction?

Unlike a chemical reaction, a nuclear reaction results in a significant change in mass and an associated change of energy, as described by Einstein's equation. In nuclear fission, nuclei split into lighter nuclei with an accompanying release of multiple neutrons and large amounts of energy.

How to Calculate Change in Mass in Nuclear Reaction?

Change in Mass in Nuclear Reaction calculator uses Mass Defect = Mass Reactant-Mass Product to calculate the Mass Defect, The Change in Mass in Nuclear Reaction formula is defined as during nuclear changes, either some mass is converted into energy or some energy is converted into mass. Mass Defect is denoted by ∆m symbol.

How to calculate Change in Mass in Nuclear Reaction using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Change in Mass in Nuclear Reaction, enter Mass Reactant (mreactant) & Mass Product (m) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Change in Mass in Nuclear Reaction calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.8E+54 = 60-55.
