In the options given below, let `E` denote the rest mass energy of a nucleus and `n` a neutron. The correct option is:

Options

A. `E(._(92)^(236)U) gt E(._(253)^(137)Y)+2E(n)`
B. `(E_(92)^(236)U) gt E(._(53)^(137)I)+E(._(39)^(97)Y)+2E(n)`
C. `E(._(92)^(236)U) lt E(._(56)^(140)Ba)+E(._(36)^(94)Kr)+2E(n)`
D. `E(._(92)^(236)U) lt E(._(56)^(140)Ba)+E(._(36)^(94)Kr)+2E(n)`

Answer

A

Explanation

Rest mass of parent nucleus should be greater than the rest mass of daughter nuclei.
