in a fission reaction of X and Y is 8.5 MeV , whereas of `""^(236)U` is 7.6 MeV the total energy liberated will be about

A

`200 KeV`

B

`2 MeV`

C

`200 MeV`

D

`2000 MeV`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`Q=(BE_(x)+BE_(y)-Be_(u))`
`=(2xx117xx8.5-236xx7.6)MeV=195 MeV~~ 195 MeV~~200 MeV`.
