Correct answer
BNeutron
Step-by-step explanation
$\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{Z} \text { in LHS }=92 \\
& \mathrm{Z} \text { in } \mathrm{RHS}=56+36=92 \\
& \mathrm{~A} \text { in } \mathrm{LHS}=236 \\
& \mathrm{~A} \text { in } \mathrm{RHS}=141+92=233
\end{aligned}$
So 3 neutrons are released.
So 3 neutrons are released.
