Q. In any fission process the ratio $\frac{\text { mass of fission products }}{\text { mass of parent nucleus }}$ is

JIPMERJIPMER 2007

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
$\Rightarrow \frac{\text { Mass of fission Products }}{\text { Mass of parent nucleus }}<1$
