Correct Answer - A
(a) Energy relased in one fission of `""_(92)^(235)U` nucleus `=200 meV `
Mass of uranium = 1 g
we know that , 235 g of ` ""^(235)U` has `6.023xx10^(23)` atoms or nuclei
`therefore ` Energy relased in fission of 1 g of `U^(235)`
`E=(6.023xx10^(23) xx1xx200)/(235)=5.1xx10^(23)meV `
`=5.1xx10^(23)xx1.6xx10^(-13)J`
`=(5.1xx10^(23)xx1.6xx10^(-13))/(3.6xx10^(6))kWh =2.26xx10^(4) kWh`
