NEET Physics Nuclear Fission MCQ Question
Consider a diagram that shows the nuclear fission of 235 92 U upon neutron bombardment, resulting in the production of two intermediate mass nuclear fragments and additional neutrons. Which of the following nuclear fragments could be labeled as one of the possible fission products in this reaction?

141 56 Ba
144 56 Ba
139 54 Xe
138 54 Xe
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The process of fission in the reaction 235 92 U + n → 141 56 Ba + 92 36 Kr + 3n is one of the possible outcomes as per the NCERT context, making 141 56 Ba a correct fission product.
