Options
A.A typical fission represented by 92U325 + 0n1 → 56Ba143 + 36Kr93 + energy
B.heavy is used as moderator in preference to ordinary water because H may capture neutrons, while would not
C.Cadmium rods increase the reactor power when they go in. decrease when go in, decreases when they go outward
D.Slower neutrons are more effective in causing fission than faster neutrons in case of U235
