When Uranium is bombarded with neutrons,it undergoes fission. The fission reaction can be written as ${}_{92}U^{235} + {}_0n^1 \to {}_{56}Ba^{141} + {}_{36}Kr^{92} + 3x + Q$,where three particles named $x$ are produced and energy $Q$ is released. What is the name of the particle $x$?

$A$ $1000 \; MW$ fission reactor consumes half of its fuel in $5.00 \; y$. How much $_{92}^{235} U$ (in $kg$) did it contain initially? Assume that the reactor operates $80 \%$ of the time, that all the energy generated arises from the fission of $_{92}^{235} U$, and that this nuclide is consumed only by the fission process.
