The critical mass of a fissile material will be -
aOne kilogram equivalent
bMinimum mass required for chain reaction✓ Correct
cRest mass equivalent to 1010Joules
dMore than one of the above
eNone of the above
Explanation
The critical mass of a fissile material is the minimum amount of fissile material that will support a self-sustaining chain reaction. At this mass, the neutrons released as products of one fission reaction can cause fission in neighboring atoms. ## Computer and Information Technology
