Which of the following is/are correct for nuclear reactor?

A

A typical fission is represented by
`""_(92)""^(235)U=""_(0)""^(1)nto""_(54)""^(140)Ba+""_(36)""^(93)Kr+` Energy

B

Heavy water (`D""_(2)O`) is used as moderator in preference to orduinary water (`H""_(2)O`) because hydrogen may capture neutrons, while D would not do that

C

Cadmium rods increse the reactor power when they go in and decrease when they go outwards

D

Slower neutrons are more effective in causing fission than faster neutrons in the case of `""_(235)U`
