detailed solution

Correct option is A

Q=Δm×931[(235.0439+1.0087) −(98.916+133.9115+3.0261)×931]Q=184.84MeV

What is the total energy emitted for given fission reaction

 01n+92235U92236U4098Zr+52136Te+201n

The daughter nuclei are unstable therefore they decay into stable end products M 4298o and X 54136e by successive emission of β-particles. Let mass of   01n=1.0087 amu, mass of  92235U=236.0526 amu, mass of  54136Xe=135.9170 amu, mass of M 4298o = 97.9054
