Question
Chapter 18, Problem 40E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The number of neutrons released in the third fission step in a nuclear fission reaction which releases three neutrons is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Nuclear fission reactions go through chain reaction. Each neutron released in nuclear fission reaction further causes a nuclear fission reaction. Critical mass is the minimum required mass of the fissionable nuclide to retain the fission reactions.

Answer the following questions about this system: Under these conditions, will the pressure of N2O4 tend to rise or fall? Is it possible to reverse this tendency by adding NO2? In other words, if you said the pressure of N2O4 will tend to rise, can that be changed to a tendency to fall by adding NO2? Similarly, if you said the pressure of N2O4 will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to '2' rise by adding NO2? If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate the minimum pressure of NO 2 needed to reverse it.
