Problem

In the options given below, let

E

denote the rest mass energy of a nucleus and

n

a neutron. a.

E\left({}_{92}^{236}\text{U}\right) > E\left({}_{53}^{137}\text{I}\right) + E\left({}_{39}^{97}\text{Y}\right) + 2E(n)

E\left({}_{92}^{236}\text{U}\right) < E\left({}_{53}^{137}\text{I}\right) + E\left({}_{39}^{97}\text{Y}\right) + 2E(n)

E\left({}_{92}^{236}\text{U}\right) < E\left({}_{56}^{140}\text{Ba}\right) + E\left({}_{36}^{94}\text{Kr}\right) + 2E(n)

E\left({}_{92}^{236}\text{U}\right) = E\left({}_{56}^{140}\text{Ba}\right) + E\left({}_{36}^{94}\text{Kr}\right) + 2E(n)
