Question

The energy released by the fission of $1g$ of ${}^{235}U$in joule, given that the energy released per fission is $200MeV$ is
(Avogadros number is 6.023 x10${}^{23}$)

• A. 8.202 x 10${}^{12}$
• B. 8.202 x 10${}^8$
• C. 8.202 x 10${}^{10}$
• D. 8.202 x 10${}^{14}$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

8.202 x 10${}^{10}$

Energy Released $=\frac{6}{235}\times {10}^{23}\times 200\times 1.6\times {10}^{-13}$$=8.17\times {10}^{10}J/s$
