In a fission reaction $_{92}^{236}U \to ^{117}X + ^{117}Y + n + n$,the binding energy per nucleon of $X$ and $Y$ is $8.5\, MeV$,whereas that of $^{236}U$ is $7.6\, MeV$. The total energy liberated will be about . . . . . . $MeV$.

$A$ star has $100 \%$ helium composition. It starts to convert three ${ }^4 He$ into one ${ }^{12} C$ via the triple alpha process as ${ }^4 He + { }^4 He + { }^4 He \rightarrow { }^{12} C + Q$. The mass of the star is $2.0 \times 10^{32} \ kg$ and it generates energy at the rate of $5.808 \times 10^{30} \ W$.
