Ill give Brainliest Plutonium-239

Part A
Given: energy released = about 200 MeV per individual reaction (mass = 239 amu)

List the balanced nuclear reaction.

Part B
Determine the energy released per kilogram of fuel used.

Given MeV per reaction, calculate energy in joules per kilogram of reactants.
Consider 1 mole of plutonium-239 to be a mole of “reactions” (molar mass = 239 grams).

Part C
Determine the mass of fuel required for the expected energy consumption in the United States for the next 10 years.

Energy use per person per year in the United States = 3.5 × 1011 joules.
Base your calculations on a current population of 310,000,000.
