Consider the following.
n + 235U → 92Sr + 142Xe + 2 n
(a)
Calculate the energy (in MeV) released in the neutron-induced
fission reaction above, given m(92Sr)
= 91.911029 u and m(142Xe)
= 141.929703 u. (Assume 1 u = 931.5
MeV/c2.)
MeV
(b)
Confirm that the total number of nucleons and total charge are
conserved in this reaction. (The electron family number is
abreviated "efn".)
