Question
The nuclear fission of uranium-235 is accompanied by an enormous amount of energy because
O the mass defect for U-235 is smaller than that of each fragment elements produced.
binding energy per nucleon for a U-235 is larger than that of each fragment elements produced.
the process leads to the formation of high energy neutrons.
O the binding energy per nucleon for a U-235 is lesser than that of each fragment elements produced.
