Which outcome results when uranium enrichment concentrates U-235?

A)Amplified nuclear fission chain reaction
B)Slower rate of radioactive decay
C)Increased neutron moderation capacity
D)Greater alpha particle emission yield

💡 Explanation

A higher concentration of U-235 increases the probability of neutron capture and therefore sustains fission chain reactions in nuclear reactors, rather than less fission, because criticality is reached faster.
