The number of neutrons accompanying the formation of 54Xe139 and 38Sr94 from the absorption of a slow neutron by 92U235, followed by nuclear fission is __________________?

Question

Accepted Answer

3. The reaction involves the fission of U-235. The total number of neutrons released is calculated from the given products: 139 (Xe) + 94 (Sr) + 3 neutrons = 232. This suggests an error in the question's premise or expected calculation, but based on the provided correct answer C=3, three neutrons are released.
