<u>Answer:</u> The energy released in the given nuclear reaction is 1.3106 MeV.
<u>Explanation:</u>
For the given nuclear reaction:
We are given:
Mass of 
= 39.963998 u
Mass of 
= 39.962591 u
To calculate the mass defect, we use the equation:
Putting values in above equation, we get:
To calculate the energy released, we use the equation:
(Conversion factor: 
)
Hence, the energy released in the given nuclear reaction is 1.3106 MeV.
The mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons. Since there are 16 neutrons, there are 14 protons. This also corresponds to the atomic number, so this atom's atomic number is 14 which is also Silicon
Photosynthesis is the process where plants create energy. It requires water, carbon dioxide and sunlight. The end result is glucose, which the plants consume, and oxygen. Cellular respiration requires oxygen and glucose. The end result is carbon dioxide, ATP, and water.
There are no states in the picture, but Na should have a "(s)" after it, and Cl2 should have a "(g)" after it. NaCl should have an "(s)". Chlorine is a diatomic element so it has a "2" subscript on it.
Hope this helped! :)
