Answer: None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

The total mass of a system does not change during normal (non-nuclear) chemical reactions or during other processes where energy changes form. The force of gravity is constant and will not change when energy is converted. While energy can be converted between forms or exchanged between species, no additional energy can be created or removed.

Answer:

None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

When energy is converted from one form to another in a chemical or physical change, none will change. This is due to the law of conservation of energy. It states that the total energy of the system remains constant. It only changes energy from one form of energy to another. So, the correct option is (d) "none of the above".
