Question
Which of the following does not describe a nuclear fission reaction?
The number of nucleons in the products is different from the number of nucleons in the starting material.
The mass of the products is less than the mass of the reactants.
The energy released is proportional to the mass difference in the system.
All of the above describe a fusion reaction.
A.The number of nucleons in the products is different from the number of nucleons in the starting material.
B.The mass of the products is less than the mass of the reactants.
C.The energy released is proportional to the mass difference in the system.
D.All of the above describe a fusion reaction.
Explanation / Answer
All the three statements are applicable to nuclear fission reaction.
As the nuclide undergoes nuclear disoociation there will be a difference in Total no.of protons and nutrons in starting material and in products. Because of the have been eliminated inthe form alpha or beta particles.
As sating material spilts into two or more products materials by losing alpha or beta particles so, mass of product is less than mass of reactants
ANd enregy, E = delta mc2
