`""_(92)U""^(235)` nucleus absorbes a neutron and disintegrate into `""_(54)Xe""^(139),""_(38)Sr""^(94)`, and x neutrons x is

A

3-neutrons

B

2-neutrons

C

`alpha`particle

D

`beta`particle

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`_(92)U^(256)` nucleus absorbs a neutron and then disntegratein `_(54)Xe^(139),_(38)Sr^(94)` and X.
Thus
`_(92U^(235)+_(0)n^(1)rarr_(54)Xe^(139)+_(38)Sr^(94)+3_(0)n^(1))`
Hence the product is 3 neutrons.
