I am confused on how the answer is reached, specifically how the formula energy needed=power/rate of reduction is laid out
Homework Equations
energy needed = power/rate of reduction
The Attempt at a Solution
What I am confused about is that since power is in J/s and rate of reduction is in kg/s that would make Energy needed into J/kg... or specific heat capacity and not energy itself.
How does this work?
