In which process does an atom split into two smaller atoms? a. beta decay b. gamma decay c. nuclear fission d. nuclear fusion

If a uranium atom absorbs a neutron it will be unstable, and will generally split into two fragments. This process, the splitting of a large nucleus into two smaller ones, is known as NUCLEAR FISSION.

Hope this helps
