The mass defect in a particular nuclear ...

The mass defect in a particular nuclear reaction is `0.3` grams. The amont of energy liberated in kilowatt hours is.
(Velocity of light `= 3 xx 10^8 m//s`).

A

`1.5xx10^(6)`

B

`2.5xx10^(6)`

C

`3xx10^(6)`

D

`7.5xx10^(6)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

`E=Deltamc^(2),Deltam =0.3g =0.3xx10^(-3)`kg (given)
`implies"Amount of energy E"=(0.3)/(1000)xx(3xx10^(8))=1.6xx10^(-13)J`
