← ScienceWhich outcome typically results when material undergoes nuclear fission?
A)Mass defect and kinetic energy✓
B)Increased neutron capture cross-section
C)Decreased chain reaction probabilities
D)Stable isotope configuration remains unchanged
💡 Explanation
A mass defect results due to the law of conservation because mass converts to energy during nuclear fission (radioactive decay), increasing kinetic energy via Einstein's mass-energy equivalence. Therefore energy is released, rather than being captured or changing to inert configuration.
