How many neutrons are there in the element Silver (Ag)?

How many neutrons are there in the element Silver (Ag)? Correct Answer 61

The atomic number and mass number of silver is 47 and 107.86 u respectively. Atomic number of silver = number of protons = 47 Mass Number of silver = number of protons + number of neutrons = 107.86 u Therefore, number of neutrons in silver = mass number – number of protons = 107.86 – 47 = 60.86 u (approximately 61).

What does the control rod (cadmium rod) do in a nuclear reactor? A. The fission absorbs excessive heat generated during the reaction and thus prevents excess temperature rise. B. Absorbs extra neutrons to control the chain reaction. C. Reduces the energy of neutrons so that they can be further used for the fission reaction. D. The chain produces the neutrons required for the fission reaction.
Consider the following statements.
In a nuclear reactor, self-sustained chain reaction is possible because
1. More neutrons are released in each of the fission reactions.
2. The neutrons immediately take park in the fission process.
3. The fast neutrons are slowed down by graphite.
4. Every neutron released in the fission reaction initiates further fission.
Which of these statements are correct?
