B)use fast neutrons for fission
C)use Thorium-232 as fissile fuel
D)convert fertile material to fissile material

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fast breeder reactors primarily use fast neutrons for fission, often utilize molten sodium as a coolant, and are designed to convert fertile material (like Uranium-238) into fissile material (like Plutonium-239). They do not use Thorium-232 as fissile fuel; instead, Thorium-232 can be used in other types of reactors, like thorium reactors, where it is converted into Uranium-233.
