Answer:
one gram of U-235 generates 962 KWh electric energy.
Explanation:
1 gm of Uranium-235 contains (1/235.044)×6.023×10^23 atoms
=2.562×10^21 atoms
The energy released during each U-235 fission reaction ≈200 MeV
Energy released by the fission is 2.562×10^21×200
=5.188×10^23 MeV
=8.312×10^10 Joules
Since the gram of U-235 undergoes fission over the course of a day, the total power released is (8.312×10^10 Joules)/ (86400 seconds)
=9.62×10^5 Watts
= 962 KWh
