Uranium become during the fission process.A neutron splits the atom ,atom splits in 2, i know it depends on the protons each has

Apparently, there can be various products, according to this website:

The fission reaction in U-235 produces fission products such as Ba, Kr, Sr, Cs, I and Xe with atomic masses distributed around 95 and 135. Examples may be given of typical reaction products, such as:

U-235 + n ===> Ba-144 + Kr-90 + 2n + energy

U-235 + n ===> Ba-141 + Kr-92 + 3n + 170 MeV

U-235 + n ===> Te-139 + Zr-94 + 3n + 197 MeV

When Uranium atoms are split in a nuclear reaction just about any element can be produced. The only requirements are that the total number of protons and the total on neutrons before and right after the fission are the same and energy is conserved. That being said some reactions are more common then others. The likely hood of a particular atoms being produced depends on the Uranium isotope and the energy of the neutron that caused the fission.

i'm getting your question - an component is a specfic crew of atoms - they don't inevitably could be made from those atoms, as they could exist through themselves, which consists of Helium. Inert (unreactive), and so therefore exists as itself and in elementary words itself evidently, via the indisputable fact that's amazingly confusing to reason it to react. Radioactive decay as element out earlier is in basic terms for atoms that are risky through. the nucleus, which consists of a unusual type of neutrons or that's in simple terms too huge. as an social gathering, the previous answer isnt fullyyt authentic - Carbon-13 (observe that carbon seems with a mass type of 12 and an atomic type of 6 -subsequently a unusual type of neutrons) and Unununium- no. 111 that's in elementary words too huge to exist so it breaks down in a fragment of a 2d.

Do you mean what is the by-product of the fission?

"The by-products include free neutrons, photons usually in the form gamma rays, and other nuclear fragments such as beta particles and alpha particles."
