Assertion (A): For the fission of heavy nuclei, neutrons are more effective than protons.
Reason (R): Neutrons are heavier than protons.
✓

Answer

  1. Both A and R are true, but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
Explanation:

A neutron is slightly heavier than a proton. As neutrons are charge less particles, they penetrate matter more than protons. Therefore, they are more effective than protons in fission reactions.
