The fuel for a thermonuclear bomb (hydrogen bomb) is lithium deuteride, a salt composed of the ions Lit and í H.Considering the nuclear reaction Li + ¿n → He + {H explain how a 235U fission bomb could serve as a trigger for a fusion bomb. 235 235 A 2 Uission bomb could serve as a trigger for fusion bomb because the reaction of 2 Uproduces v and the could be used in the reaction of Li-6 to form He-4 and H-3. Select all the appropriate balanced nuclear equations for this process. 235 U → He + U +o n → 231 Th 90 92 235 140 93 Cs + 37 Rb + 3, n 92 55 235 U +- e → 3 e + 235 Pu 94 92 235 227 Ra U + He - U +, n → 3 He + 92 88 235 140 94 Xe + Sr + 20 n 92 54 38 235 140 93 U +o n → Cs + Rb +0 92 55 37 235 94 139 U +o n → Kr + 36 Ва + 0 92 56 U +. 2* He + 140 Хе + Sr +o n 235 94 92 54 38 235 227 U 92 Ra 88 235 94 139 U +o n → Kr + 36 Ва + 3 92 56
