In any fission process the ratio is
Options
- Aless than 1
- Bgreater than 1
- Cequal to 1
- Ddepends on the mass of parent nucleus
Correct answer
A. less than 1
Step-by-step solution
In fission process, when a parent nucleus breaks into daughter products, then some mass is lost in the form of energy. Thus, mass of fission products mass of parent nucleus Mass of fission Products Mass of parent nucleus 1
