Homework Statement


Our instructor asked to find 6 nuclear fission equations related to 235u. I found only 1-2 example. But none of them has shown the steps about fragments to be stable and thermal energy created in that equation. I know it was a mistake. Please help me out.

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution


Here's an example of what I've found in online. But I can't find how much energy released in this equation.

You can look up the masses of the nuclei and calculate the energy released based on them.
There are more reactions than splitting to Xe+Sr, and I'm sure you can find more examples in the internet.
