release of electrons

B

release of neutrons

C

lower mass of products than initial material

D

greater mass of products tha initial material

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
In atom bomb components of lower mass are formed.
`""_(93)U^(235) +""_(0)n^(1) rarr ""_(56)Ba^(144)+ ""_(36)Kr^(90)+2""_(0)n^(1)`
Enormous energy is released in the process.
