Problem

Calculate the total energy liberated (in joule) if 1 g1\,\text{g} of 235U^{235}\text{U} undergoes complete fission. Assume 200 MeV200\,\text{MeV} is released per fission and Avogadro’s number is 6.02×1023 mol−16.02\times10^{23}\,\text{mol}^{-1}. (a) 4×108 J4\times10^{8}\,\text{J} (b) 2×1013 J2\times10^{13}\,\text{J} (c) 8×1010 J8\times10^{10}\,\text{J} (d) 8×1011 J8\times10^{11}\,\text{J}
