What is the nuclear binding energy of an atom that has a mass defect of 5.0446
Use E = mc2. (Remember: The speed of light is approximately 3.00 x 10 m/s.)
10-29 kg?
5.61 x 10-45 J
1.51 x 10-20
4.54 x 10-123
1.78 x 1045 J

There is no answer that meets the final value of energy.

Maybe C. And you mistakenly put the 3 at the end.

Explanation:

Albert Einstein's equation of spatial relativity is the well-known E = mc2, which means that the energy of a body at rest (E) is equal to its mass (m) multiplied by the speed of light (c) at square. Einstein argued that the mass of a body is a measure of its energy content.

Now, if we know the mass of an atom, it is possible to find its energy.

E = 4.54 x10∧-12 k * m∧2 * s∧2

- Knowing that kg * m∧2 * s∧2 is the same as Joules then:

E = 4.54 x10∧-12 J

every chemical equation adheres to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. therefore, there must be the same number of atoms of each element on each side of a chemical equation.
