उत्तर
two extra neutrons and no extra electron
12C and 14C are the two isotopes of carbon atom that have same atomic number, but different mass numbers. This means that they have same number of protons and electrons, but different number of neutrons. Therefore, 12C has 6 protons, 6 electrons and 6 neutrons, whereas 14C has 6 electrons, 6 protons and 8 neutrons.

Suppose, we think of fission of a `""_26^56"Fe"` nucleus into two equal fragments `""_13^28"Al"`. Is the fission energetically possible? Argue by working out Q of the process. Given `"m"(""_26^56 "Fe") = 55.93494 "u"` and `"m"(""_13^28 "Al") = 27.98191 "u"`.
The fission properties of `""_94^239"Pu"` are very similar to those of `""_92^235 "U"`. The average energy released per fission is 180 MeV. How much energy, in MeV, is released if all the atoms in 1 kg of pure `""_94^239 "Pu"` undergo fission?
