Question

He amount of U235 to be fissioned to operate 10kW unclear reactor
is (approximately)

Vishes Rao · Accepted Answer

Neglecting non-fission neutron captures by U-235, 1 Kg of
U-235 produces about 82 TW of thermal power Going by this, to
produce 10 KW of thermal power from fission of U-235 the amount of
it to be split is ~12 picograms!
