Assertion: In the process of nuclear fis...

Assertion: In the process of nuclear fission, the fragments emit two or three neutrons as soon as they are formed and subsequently emit particles.
Reason : As the fragments contain an excess of neutrons over protons, emission of neutrons and particles bring their neutron/proton ratio the to stable values
