Question

In a fission reaction  
23692  117X + 117Y + n + n
the average binding energy per nucleon of X and Y is 8.5 MeV whereas that of 236U is 7.6 MeV. The total energy liberated will be about :

Options

A.200 keV
B.2 MeV
C.2 MeV
D.200 MeV

Solution

Q = (BEx + BEy − Beu)
= (2 × 117 × 8.5 − 236 × 7.6) MeV = 195 MeV ≈ 200 MeV.
