Which of the
following reactions is a nuclear fission?
|
|
|
|
|
Nuclear
fission is the splitting of a large atom into smaller particles. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
A. |
98Tc
--> 98Ru + 0e-1 |
|
This
is a beta decay. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
B. |
n + 235U
--> 90Sr + 144Xe + 2n |
|
This
is an induced fission.
The Correct Answer is B. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
C. |
2H + 2H
---> 4He |
|
This
is fusion. The joining together of small atoms. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
D. |
238U +
n ---> 239U |
|
This
is neutron absorption. |
