PLEASE EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWERS. There were multiple choice options given with these questions, but to keep random people from guessing, I did not include them below.

A) How many neutrons are “left over†in the noted fission reaction?

B) After a fission event, most of the energy released is in the form of

C) Suppose the original nucleus is at rest in the fission reaction noted above. If we neglect the momentum of the neutrons, after the two fragments fly apart, which has more momentum (La, Br, or they're equal)

D) Suppose the original nucleus is at rest in the fission reaction noted above. If we neglect the kinetic energy of the neutrons, after the two fragments fly apart, which has more kinetic energy (La, Br, or they're equal)

F) The two fragments of a fission reaction are isotopes that are neutron-rich; each has more neutrons than the stable isotopes for their nuclear species. They will quickly decay to more stable isotopes. What is the most likely decay mode?
