Property of matter, I think.
Mass of reactants > mass of products
Solution. because the substances can't go back to their original form. like kool aid, when its mixed you cant separate the powder and the water again.
Explanation:
Fusion vs Fission
In fission, energy is gained by splitting apart heavy atoms, for example uranium, into smaller atoms such as iodine, caesium, strontium, xenon and barium, to name just a few. However, fusion is combining light atoms, for example two hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium, to form the heavier helium. Both reactions release energy which, in a power plant, would be used to boil water to drive a steam generator, thus producing electricity.
