(choose chapter or problem)

The fission of \({ }^{235} \mathrm{U}\) can result in a variety of products, including those shown in Figure 20.7. Which of the following equations does not represent another possible fission process?

(a) \({ }_0^1 \mathrm{n}+{ }_{92}^{235} \mathrm{U} \longrightarrow{ }_{52}^{137} \mathrm{Te}+{ }_{40}^{97} \mathrm{Zr}+2{ }_0^1 \mathrm{n}\)

(b) \({ }_0^1 \mathrm{n}+{ }_{92}^{235} \mathrm{U} \longrightarrow{ }_{56}^{142} \mathrm{Ba}+{ }_{36}^{91} \mathrm{Kr}+3{ }_0^1 \mathrm{n}\)

(c) \({ }_0^1 \mathrm{n}+{ }_{92}^{235} \mathrm{U} \longrightarrow{ }_{55}^{137} \mathrm{Cs}+{ }_{37}^{90} \mathrm{Rb}+3{ }_0^1 \mathrm{n}\)
