Question
How does nuclear fission take place?
✓
Answer
(i) When slow moving neutron is bombarded on uranium 235 nucleus, it absorbs a neutron and - converts into its isotope Uranium - 236.
(ii) Uranium - 236 being extremely unstable converts into atoms of Barium and Krypton through the process of fission releasing three neutrons and 200 MeV energy.
