Calculate the Amount of Energy Released When This Nuclear Reaction

question 81

Short Answer

Calculate the amount of energy released when this nuclear reaction occurs inside an atomic warhead:
1n + 235U → 137Te + 97Zr + 2 1n
(235U = 235.0439 g/mol; 137Te = 136.9254 g/mol; 97Zr = 96.9110 g/mol; 1n = 1.00866 g/mol)
