E=mc^2 means Energy=Mass times the Constant speed of light. When the atom is split, it creates energy, no particles. But, the energy causes the atoms to speed up and and creates a massive amount of friction and heat.

Now, you could ask, what happens when a radioactive element, such as Uranium, decays. It turns into lead.
