11
What is the mass number of tritium?
12
Which of the following metals forms a self-protective coating when exposed to air and moisture. Al Na NH 3 H 2 SO 4
13
What does the coolant do in a nuclear reactor? Transfer the energy to the generator
14
What does the moderator do in a nuclear reactor? Slow down the neutrons to produce more fission reacitons
