- Calculate the energy released (Q value) from the following fission reaction:Some heavy nuclei, containing even more protons than the uranium nucleus undergo “spontaneous fission,” splitting apart without absorbing a neutron. Why is spontaneous fission observed only in the heaviest nuclei?Find question in Image.
- Why can heavy nuclei with odd numbers of neutrons be induced to fission with thermal neutrons, whereas those with even numbers of neutrons require more energy input to induce fission?PLS help asap(a) Show that about 1.0 × 1010 J would be released by the fusion of the deuterons in 1.0 gal of water. Note that 1 of every 6 500 hydrogen atoms is a deuteron. (b) The average energy consumption rate of a person living in the United States is about 1.0 × 104 J/s (an average power of 10 kW). At this rate, how long would the energy needs of one person be supplied by the fusion of the deuterons in 1.0 gal of water? Assume the energy released per deuteron is 1.64 MeV
