I must bow to your uneducated brilliance. Or not.
Edit my post all you wish. You are wrong.
Nuclear reactions involve a loss of mass, converted into energy. That is not the case with chemical reactions. That is why a pellet the size of about the first bone on you pinky finger produces the same amount of energy as hundreds of pounds of coal.
MASS IS CONVERTED TO ENERGY in a nuclear reaction. Not a chemical reaction. Try again.
“I must bow to your uneducated brilliance. Or not.”
You obviously have a closed mind and did not read any of my links nor have you any comprehension of Einsteins work related to E=MC^2.
Nor can you see the logical conclusions of YOUR posts where you say Energy and Mass are related EXCEPT in certain cases such as combustion.
“Try again.”
No. I have spent enough time trying to educate you, already. Signed ... Nuclear Engineer (retired)
