Question
Chapter 18, Problem 67QAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The number of years which is required for the supply of energy by the fission of U-235 should be calculated.
Concept introduction:
A reaction in which a nucleus of an atom or two nuclei and a subatomic particle collide to form one or more nuclide which is different from the starting nuclide is known as nuclear reaction. Nuclear reactions can be classified as nuclear fission and nuclear fusion.
A reaction in which heavy nuclei bombarded by the neutrons of high energy and splits into lighter nuclei is known as nuclear fission.
