Question

Complete the equation for the following fission process $_{92}U^{235}+_0n^1 \, \rightarrow _{38}Sr^{90} +.......$

• A. $_{57}X^{142}+3 _0n^1$
• B. $_{54}X^{145}+3 _0n^1$
• C. $_{54}X^{143}+3 _0n^1$
• D. $_{54}X^{142}+ _0n^1$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$_{54}X^{143}+3 _0n^1$

Answer 2

$_{.54}Xe^{143}+3_{.0} n^{-1}$
$_{.54}Xe^{145}$
$_{.57}Xe^{142}$
$_{.54}Xe^{142} _{.0} n^{-1}$
$_{.92}U^{235}+.0n^{-1}$ $\rightarrow$ $_{.38}Sr^{90}+_{54}X^{143}+3_{0}n^{1}$
