Why are fission products of same mass as the reactants rarely formed?

During fission, the energy released comes from converting mass into energy (calculated by Einstein's famous equation: E = mc2). Therefore, if a fission reaction releases energy, and it does, that energy came from converting mass into energy, thus reducing the mass of the reactants.

Why is it important to manufacture things that are biodegradable?
Biodegradable products are easy to dispose of and rarely ever cause harm to the environment. By manufacturing such products, we ensure that the environment does not become polluted.
What is fusion and fission bomb?
Fission reaction gets its energy from breaking up large nuclei (e.g. uranium, plutonium) into smaller ones.Fusion reaction gets its energy from combining small nuclei (hydrogen isotopes) together to make bigger ones (helium).Modern nuclear weapons are rarely pure fission or fusion, but are typically some mixture of them in a unique arrangement to get desired effects, in a desired package size, at an affordable production cost.
What is the process of bacterial reproduction called?
The most common bacterial reproduction is by Binary Fission, which is the use of mitosis to create two identical cells from one. Rarely, bacteria can reproduce sexually (ie using meiosis to create genetically different daughter cells) but this is not the most widely used mechanism.
