When a neutron collides with a uranium -235 nucleus it
can induce a variety of fission reactions. one such reaction is
235/92 U + 1/0n. 140/54 Xe + 94/38 Sr + 2 1/0 n
The following mass values are known 140/54 Xe: 139.921620u. 94/38
Sr : 93.915367u. 235/92U:235.043924u. 1/0n: 1.08665 u. How much
energy is released in this reaction?

Consider a fission reaction where a Uranium-235 nucleus absorbs a neutron and then splits to Strontium, Xenon, and some neutrons. If the strontium nucleus has a mass number of 89 and the Xenon nucleus has a mass number of 144, how much energy is released in a single reaction? Use the attached table for the atomic masses of the nuclei. Give your answer in MeV and with 4 significant figures. (Hint: Balance the reaction first). Isotope Masses for Fission A...

The illustration shows one possible way that a nucleus of uranium-235 (235U) can undergo neutron-induced fission. (a) Rank the following objects in order of their binding energy per nucleon, from largest to smallest. If any two objects have the same binding energy per nucleon, state this. Explain how you made your ranking. (i) The uranium-235 (235U) nucleus (ii) The tellurium-134 (134Te) nucleus (iii) The zirconium-99 (99Zr) nucleus (iv) The three neutrons Activity 27-4 [continued]. (b) Using your results from part...

oart A and B please ission Reactions In a nuclear fission reaction a heavy nucleus divides to form smaller nuclei and one or more neutrons. Many nuclei can undergo fission, but the fission reactions of uranium-235 and plutonium-239 are the principal ones that generate energy in nuclear power plants. This problem deals with balancing the fission reaction of the uranium-235 isotope as it undergoes bombardment from a neutron 14 of 36 > Review Constants 1 Periodic Table When a U...
When a stationary plutonium-239, 239/94 Pu, decays into uranium-235 plus an alpha particle, the energy released in the process is 5.24 MeV. The following masses are known: 4/2 He: 4.002603 u 235/92 U: 235.043924 u What is the mass of the 239/94 Pu nucleus, in amu? (1 u = 931.494 MeV/c2)
4. The energy released by the fission of one atom of uranium-235 is 3.2 x 10 R J. The energy released by the atomic bomb dropped at Hiroshima was estimated to be the equivalent of 18 140 t of dynamite or 8.0 × 1013 J (a) How many atoms of uranium-235 underwent fission? (b) What mass of uranium-235 was converted into energy?
