The mass change, or the mass defect, can be calculated by the formula that is very known to be associated with Albert Einstein.
E = Δmc²
where
E is the energy gained or released during the reaction
c is the speed of light equal to 3×10⁸ m/s
Δm is the mass change
(1.715×10³ kJ)(1,000 J/1 kJ) = Δm(3×10⁸ m/s)²
Δm = 1.91×10⁻¹¹ kg
Gravity pulling the mass of the atmosphere toward the center of the
earth. Atmosphere includes air, water vapor, etc.
