हिन्दीGiven below are two statements: Statement I: Law of conservation of mass states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed. Statement II: Mass and energy are completely interconvertible according to Einstein's equation in chemical reactions. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Correct answer · Option 1
