`U^(235) + n^(1)rarr` fission product + neutron + 3.2`xx 10^(-11)j`. The energy released , when 1g of `u^(235)` finally undergoes fission , is

A

`12.75xx10^(8) 8` KJ

B

`18.60 xx10^(9) KJ`

C

`8.21 xx10^(7) KJ`

D

`6.55 xx 10^(6)` KJ

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
235 g of U-235 releases energy `=19.293 xx 10^(9)` KJ
1 g of U-235 releases energy `=(19.293xx10^(9))/(235)` KJ
`" "=8.209xx10^(7)` KJ
