Explain an example in which heat transfer is necessary.
(N/A) In a nuclear reactor,heat transfer systems must be installed to ensure that the enormous energy produced by nuclear fission in the core is transferred out sufficiently fast. This process prevents the reactor core from overheating and potentially melting down.

View SolutionAssertion : Energy is released in nuclear fission.
Reason : Total binding energy of the fission fragments is larger than the total binding energy of the parent nucleus.
Reason : Total binding energy of the fission fragments is larger than the total binding energy of the parent nucleus.
In the nuclear fission of one nucleus of $U^{235}$,the energy released is $188 \text{ MeV}$. The energy released in the nuclear fission of $235 \text{ g}$ of $U^{235}$ is nearly (Avogadro number $= 6.02 \times 10^{23} \text{ mol}^{-1}$)
