Tim creates a model of a fission reaction using plastic building blocks. He uses four black blocks for to represent neutrons. He uses a red block for barium and a blue block for krypton.

Answer 1

This is how Tim's correct model of fission looks:

- Two black blocks representing neutrons are snapped together
- One red block representing barium is attached to the two black blocks
- One blue block representing krypton is attached to the two black blocks
- This arrangement represents the splitting of uranium-235 in a fission reaction
