Fuel used in a Fast Breeder Reactor is _____________?
Correct answer: C. Uranium Plutonium Oxide
- A. Uranium Oxide
- B. Uranium Plutonium carbide
- C. Uranium Plutonium Oxide
- D. Uranium thorium Oxide
- E. None of these
Explanation
Fast breeder reactors commonly use mixed uranium-plutonium oxide fuel, called MOX fuel. The reactor also converts fertile uranium-238 into additional plutonium fuel.
