Which of the following energy sources has the highest energy density and is used in nuclear reactors?
ACoal
BUranium
CNatural Gas
DSolar Energy
Step-by-Step Solution
  1. Step 1: Understand energy density

    Energy density is the amount of energy stored per unit mass or volume.
  2. Step 2: Compare energy densities

    Uranium has much higher energy density than coal, natural gas, or solar energy.
  3. Step 3: Identify use in nuclear reactors

    Uranium is the primary fuel in nuclear reactors due to its high energy density.
  4. Final Answer:

    Uranium → Option B
  5. Quick Check:

    Highest energy density fuel = Uranium ✅
Quick Trick: Nuclear fuel uranium packs more energy than fossil fuels.
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Confusing coal or natural gas as highest energy density fuels.
