(a(i))[1]
Use the equation to find the value of $x$.
(a(ii))[1]
State the name of the particle indicated by the symbol $^{0}_{-1}\text{e}$.
(b(i))[3]
Figure 8.1 gives some data for the nuclei in the reaction. Use the data in Fig. 8.1 to determine the binding energy, in $\text{u}$, of a uranium-235 nucleus.
(b(ii))[3]
Show that the binding energy per nucleon for a nucleus of uranium-235 is $7.18\,\text{MeV}$.
(c)[2]
The neutron’s kinetic energy before the reaction is negligible. Use the data from (b) to calculate the total energy released in this reaction, in $\text{MeV}$.
