The correct option is this: THE NUCLEUS OF AN ATOM U-235 SPLITS, RESULTING IN TWO SMALLER FRAGMENTS AND THE RELEASE OF A LARGE AMOUNT OF ENERGY. 
The process of nuclear fission involves the splitting of a nucleus of a radioactive element into two smaller nuclei of different elements accompany with a large release of energy. The energy released during nuclear fission is usually used to generate electricity power. <span />

Answer:

The nucleus of an atom of U-235 splits, resulting in two smaller fragments and the release of a large amount of energy

Explanation:

In the fission reaction U-235 absorbs one neutron and breaks into two new atoms (also known as  fission fragments) and three neutrons with the release of massive amount of energy.  

The nuclear fission reaction is as follows:

¹₀n + ²³⁵₉₂U → ¹⁴¹₅₆Ba + ⁹²₃₉Kr + 3 ¹₀n

U-235 has a half life of 703.8 million years. In the fission reaction massive amount of energy 202.5 MeV is released.

. A reaction in which A, B, and C react to form products is first order in A, second order in B, and zero order in C. a) Write a
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

a) r = k × [A] × [B]²

b) 3

Explanation:

Let's consider the following generic reaction

A + B + C ⇒ Products

The generic rate law is:

r = k × [A]ᵃ × [B]ᵇ × [C]ⁿ

where

  • r: reaction rate
  • k: rate constant
  • a, b, n: reaction orders

This reaction is first order in A, second order in B, and zero order in C. The rate law is:

r = k × [A]¹ × [B]² × [C]⁰

r = k × [A] × [B]²

The overall order of the reaction is the sum of the individual reaction orders.

1 + 2 + 0 = 3
