Question

A nuclear reactor continuously generates 150 MW of powerthrough the fissioning of uranium. Suppose that each fissionreleases 190 MeV. If one mole of uranium (6.023 ×1023 nuclei) has a mass of 0.235 kg, what mass ofuranium has undergone fission in a 4.0 day period?

a. 1.3 kg
b. 5.2 kg
c. 0.33 kg
d. 2.6 kg
e. 0.67 kg A nuclear reactor continuously generates 150 MW of powerthrough the fissioning of uranium. Suppose that each fissionreleases 190 MeV. If one mole of uranium (6.023 ×1023 nuclei) has a mass of 0.235 kg, what mass ofuranium has undergone fission in a 4.0 day period? 1.3 kg 5.2 kg 0.33 kg 2.6 kg 0.67 kg

Explanation / Answer

Given :
A nuclear reactor continuously generates 150 MW of powerthrough the fissioning of uranium. Suppose that each fissionreleases 190 MeV. If one mole of uranium (6.023 ×1023 nuclei) has a mass of 0.235 kg, what mass ofuranium has undergone fission in a 4.0 day period?    c.)        0.33 kg    E = m c2 m = E / c2 m = E / c2 I hope it helps you
