Nuclear power plants produce energy using fission One common

Nuclear power plants produce energy using fission. One common fuel, uranium-235, produces energy through the fission reaction

What mass of uranium-235 is needed to produce the same amount of energy as the fusion reaction in Part A?(1.90x10^12 J).

Solution

(1.90x10^12)*235 /(3.2*10^-11*6.023*10^23) = 23.166grams
