on the reactants side ::
total number of neutrons = 1 + (235 - 92) = 144
on the product side, number of neutrons = n + (117 - 50) + (101 - 42)
ideally
neutrons on reactants side = neutrons on product side
144 = n + (117 - 50) + (101 - 42)
n = 18

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?
A Uranium-235 atom undergoes fission in the following net reaction (induced fission involves an intermediate step as U-236 which we will ignore): U-235 --> X + Y + 2n U-235 is the 'parent', X and Y are 'daughters' (= fission products), n = free neutron. 1 u = atomic mass unit = 1.66 x 10-27 kg mn = mass of a neutron = 1.008665 u mp = mass of a proton = 1.007825 u 1 eV = 1.602 x 10-19...

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...

1. Nuclear Reactions (i) In class we went through the U-235 fission reaction. There is another nuclear fission reaction that can be used in a reactor and that is the plutonium-239 reaction. Write down what that reaction is for the fission of a plutonium if the daughter products are 134Xe, 143Zr and 3 neutrons. 23Pu= 239.0521u u= 1.6605x10-27 kg e= 1.609x10-19 JeV 134Xe = 133.9054u in= 1.0087u 29.Pu=240.0538u 193Zr = 102.9266u c=2.9979x109 ms! 235 U = 235.0439u (ii) What is...
