When one mole of uranium-235 undergoes fission, how much energy is released in kilojoules?
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...
For example , if a nuclear fission reactor produces an average power of 1.0 GW over the year (10^9 W), what mass of U-235 has undergone fission in that time? Use the stat that on average 200 MeV energy is released per fission reaction. Please not that on average a mole of uranium (containing 6.023 × 1023 nuclei) has a mass of 235.043930 g

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].
