Question: c ) If we apply the same logic for the Mo diffusion inside U O 2 - 5 % Mo fuel ( microcell fuel pellet

c) If we apply the same logic for the Mo diffusion inside UO2-5% Mo fuel (microcell fuel pellet),can you estimate whether Mo would be rich at the grain boundaries or poor at the grain boundaries? When you answer this, consider the following: 1) should we use atomic radii or ionic radii for Mo?2) Based on the radii, would Mo be interstitial defects or substitutional defects? 3) Would Mo be rich or poor at the grain boundaries?
 c) If we apply the same logic for the Mo diffusion
