plutonium-239 (239/94 Pu) is an isotope that can be used as a fuel in nuclear reactors. when the plutonium nucleus is hit by a nuetron it undergoes fission, and splits into two smaller nuclei. there are many possibilities for what the smaller nuclei might be, but we'll just look at one possible fission reaction where it splits into cerium 148 (148/58 Ce) and krypton 89 (89/36 Kr) a) write an equation for the fission of plutonium 239 into cerium 148...

Calculating Mass Defect and Nuclear Binding Energy
Calculating Mass Defect and Nuclear Binding Energy Learning Goal: To learn how to calculate the binding energy of a nucleus. The measured masses of nuclei are consistently lower than predicted by the sum of their particles. This discrepancy is called the mass defect, and it can be used to calculate the nuclear binding energy according to Einstein's famous equationΔE = Δmc2 where ΔE is the energy produced, Δm is the mass lost, and c 3.00 x 108 m/s. Nuclear binding energy is the energy holding the...
