Assertion: Heterolytic fission occurs readily in polar covalent bonds. Reason: Hyterolytic fission involves breaking of bond in such a way that the shared pair of electrons go with one atom.

Two other possible ways by which .^(235)U can undergo fission when bombarded with a neutron are (1) by the release of .^(140)Xe and .^(94)Sr as fission fragments and (2) by the release of .^(132)Sn and .^(101)Mo as fission fragments. In each case, neutrons are also released. Find the number of neutrons released in each of these events.
