Question

what are the products of a fission reaction? check all that apply. lighter atoms energy heavier atoms neutrons protons

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In a fission reaction, a heavy - nucleus splits into lighter nuclei. Energy is released in the process, and neutrons are also emitted. Lighter atoms are formed as the heavy atom breaks apart. Heavier atoms are not products of fission. Protons are not the primary products of a fission reaction in the sense that they are not released in isolation as a main product; the main products are lighter atoms, energy, and neutrons.

Answer:

lighter atoms, energy, neutrons
