Thermal neutrons which are used to cause the fission of U-235 have energy _____________ eV?

Correct answer: A. < 0.025

  • A. < 0.025
  • B. > 1
  • C. 1-25
  • D. > 200

Explanation

Thermal neutrons have energies near 0.025 eV at room temperature, much lower than 1 eV. Thus the intended range is below 0.025 eV, with 0.025 eV representing the usual approximate value.
