      Hi there, I don’t quite understand your question… perhaps it’s too cryptic for me (I was always rubbish at cryptic crosswords…)
      If you split the nucleus in an atom you end up with different atoms… you can then add neutrons or add electrons to make the atom neutral.

      I don’t understand your question I’m afraid.

      If you split the nucleus of an atom you see a release of energy – I don’t know what you mean by the “times 3 plus 6 bit” let me know in the comments and I’ll try to answer!
