Which of the following is true about nuclear fission?

1 answer:

Ymorist [56]4 years ago

4 0

Answer:

If you add the masses of all the products after fission, they are LESS than the mass of the reactants.

Explanation:

A nuclear fission reaction is a radioactive reaction which in which a heavy nucleus spontaneously disintegrates into 2 lighter nuclei and some neutrons with a release of large amount of energy.

When nuclear fission occurs, a mass deficit between the decaying nuclei and the product occurs. It is this mass that actually yields the energy that is produced as a by product of the reaction.

A certain element x has four isotopes. 4.350% of x has a mass of 49.94605 amu. 83.79% of x has a mass of 51.94051 amu. 9.500% of

Average atomic mass of an element is the sum of atomic mass of its isotopes multiplied by their respective percentage abundance.

There are four isotopes of element X:

1. 4.350 % with mass 49.94605 amu

2. 83.79% with mass 51.94051 amu

3. 9.5% with mass 52.94065 amu

4. 2.360% with mass 53.93888 amu

Thus, average atomic mass will be:

$=49.94605(\frac{4.350}{100})+51.94051(\frac{83.79}{100})+52.95065(\frac{9.5}{100})+53.93888(\frac{2.360}{100})$

Or,

$Average atomic mass=2.173 amu+43.52 amu+5.029 amu+1.273 amu=51.99 amu$

Therefore, average atomic mass of element X will be 51.99 amu (four significant figures)
