In a radioactive decay, a nucleus is transformed into another with the emission of a positron. In this process the neutron-proton ratio

Assertion: In the process of nuclear fission, the fragments emit two or three neutrons as soon as they are formed and subsequently emit particles. Reason : As the fragments contain an excess of neutrons over protons, emission of neutrons and particles bring their neutron/proton ratio the to stable values

The nuclear reaction which is not accompanied with the emission of neutrons is
