In the options given below, let E denote...

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

A

`E(._(92)^(236)U)gt E(._(53)^(137)I)+E(._(39)^(97)Y)+2E(n)`

B

`E(._(92)^(236)U) lt E (._(53)^(137)I)+E(._(39)^(97)Y) +2E (n)`

C

`E(._(29)^(236)U) lt E(._(56)^(140)Ba)+E(._(36)^(94)Kr)+2E(n)`

D

`E_(._(92)^(236)U) = E(._(56)^(140)Ba)+E(._(36)^(4)Kr)+2E(n)`
