(II) The energy produced by a fission reactor is about $200 \mathrm{MeV}$ per fission. What fraction of the rest mass of a ${ }_{92}^{235} \mathrm{U}$ nucleus is this?
The energy released in the fission of $\mathrm{a}^{235} \mathrm{U}$ nucleus is about $200 \mathrm{MeV}$. How much rest mass (in $\mathrm{kg}$ ) is converted to energy in this fission?
