Problem

When uranium is bombarded with neutrons, it undergoes fission. The fission reaction can be written as: 92235U+01n→56141Ba+3692Kr+3x+Q (energy){}_{92}^{235}\text{U}+{}_{0}^{1}\text{n}\rightarrow{}_{56}^{141}\text{Ba}+{}_{36}^{92}\text{Kr}+3x+Q\text{ (energy)} where three particles named xx are produced and energy QQ is released. What is the name of the particle xx? (1) Electron (2) α\alpha-particle (3) Neutron (4) Neutrino
