Best Answer

On nuclear fission, small fraction of mass is loss and transform to energy. The loss mass is part of tiny sub-atomic particle.

Consider reaction of Uranium

U235 + n1 --> U236 --> Kr92 + Ba141+3n1

Well seem all mass is balance. But take careful step

U235 is 235.0439

U236 is 236.0526

Kr92 is 91.92616

Ba141 is 140.9144

n is 1.008665

Some mass was lost and that mass go to energy as Einstein state E = mC2

What is a nuclearfusion?

Nuclear Fusion, not to be mistaken with Nuclear Fission, is a process in which energy is created due to the merging or "fusion" of subatomic particles. The process is much more energy efficient, and produces larger quantities of energy than in a fission based process.
