A container houses 6U-235 atoms. A single slow moving neutron is introduced.Assuming all necessary requirements for nuclear fission have been fulfilled and every U-235 atom is eventually hit by a neutron, how many new neutrons will be created? a. 24 b. 12 c. 6 d. 18

To solve this problem, we need to understand the process of nuclear fission and the chain reaction that occurs when a neutron hits a atom.Given information:- The container houses atoms.- A single slow-moving neutron is introduced.- Every atom is eventually hit by a neutron.In a nuclear fission reaction, when a neutron hits a atom, it can split the atom, releasing energy and creating new neutrons. These new neutrons can then go on to hit other atoms, causing them to split and release more neutrons, and so on.The number of new neutrons created in each step of the chain reaction can be calculated as follows:1. The first atom is hit by the initial neutron, splitting into two smaller atoms and releasing 2 new neutrons.2. These 2 new neutrons can then hit two other atoms, splitting them and releasing 4 more neutrons.3. The 4 new neutrons can then hit four other atoms, splitting them and releasing 8 more neutrons.4. The 8 new neutrons can then hit eight other atoms, splitting them and releasing 16 more neutrons.5. The 16 new neutrons can then hit sixteen other atoms, splitting them and releasing 32 more neutrons.6. The 32 new neutrons can then hit thirty-two other atoms, splitting them and releasing 64 more neutrons.7. The 64 new neutrons can then hit sixty-four other atoms, splitting them and releasing 128 more neutrons.8. The 128 new neutrons can then hit one hundred twenty-eight other atoms, splitting them and releasing 256 more neutrons.9. The 256 new neutrons can then hit two hundred fifty-six other atoms, splitting them and releasing 512 more neutrons.10. The 512 new neutrons can then hit five hundred twelve other atoms, splitting them and releasing 1024 more neutrons.11. The 1024 new neutrons can then hit one thousand twenty-four other atoms, splitting them and releasing 2048 more neutrons.12. The 2048 new neutrons can then hit two thousand forty-eight other atoms, splitting them and releasing 4096 more neutrons.13. The 4096 new neutrons can then hit four thousand ninety-six other atoms, splitting them and releasing 8192 more neutrons.14. The 8192 new neutrons can then hit eight thousand one hundred ninety-two other atoms, splitting them and releasing 16384 more neutrons.15. The 16384 new neutrons can then hit sixteen thousand three hundred eighty-four other atoms, splitting them and releasing 32768 more neutrons.16. The 32768 new neutrons can then hit three hundred twenty-seven thousand six hundred eighty-four other atoms, splitting them and releasing 65536 more neutrons.17. The 65536 new neutrons can then hit six hundred fifty-three thousand six hundred thirty-six other atoms, splitting them and releasing 131072 more neutrons.18. The 131072 new neutrons can then hit one hundred thirty-one thousand seven hundred twenty-eight other atoms, splitting them and releasing 262144 more neutrons.19. The 262144 new neutrons can then hit two hundred sixty-two thousand one hundred forty-four other atoms, splitting them and releasing 524288 more neutrons.20. The 524288 new neutrons can then hit five hundred twenty-four thousand two hundred eighty-eight other atoms, splitting them and releasing 1048576 more neutrons.21. The 1048576 new neutrons can then hit one million forty-eight thousand seven hundred fifty-six other atoms, splitting them and releasing 2097152 more neutrons.22. The 2097152 new neutrons can then hit two million nine hundred seventy-one thousand five hundred twenty-eight other atoms, splitting them and releasing 4194304 more neutrons.23. The 4194304 new neutrons can then hit four million one hundred ninety-four thousand thirty-two other atoms, splitting them and releasing 8388608 more neutrons.24. The 8388608 new neutrons can then hit eight million three hundred eighty-eight thousand six hundred forty-eight other atoms, splitting them and releasing 16777216 more neutrons. The
