Ytterbium element is used in many nuclear applications. Correct predictions of various nuclear properties of its can be important task. In the present study we have investigated ground-state binding energy, two-neutron separation energy, charge radii, quadrupole moments and deformation parameters of even-even 160-180Yb nuclei by using non-linear Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) Model. The results have been found as in agreement with the available experimental data. Furthermore obtained deformation parameters with RMF Model for stable even-even 168Yb, 170Yb, 172Yb, 174Yb and 176Yb isotopes have been used for calculations of their cross-sections for neutron induced reactions in wide energy range by using TALYS code. Also, the calculated cross-sections for these isotopes have been compared with the TENDL 2015 database.
