Question

write notes on fission raction​

Answer 1

Nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts (lighter nuclei). The fission process often produces free neutrons and photons (in the form of gamma rays), and releases a large amount of energy.

Example of Nuclear Fission

In nuclear power plants, energetic neutrons are directed into a sample of the isotope uranium-235. ... A common fission reaction produces barium-141 and krypton-92. In this particular reaction, one uranium nucleus breaks into a barium nucleus, a krypton nucleus, and two neutrons
