uranium atom are split by the energy known as nuclear binding energy. Protons and neutrons binding energies are the energies required to release them from the nucleus. In binding energy‚ the mass the actual mass is always less than the mass of the nucleons (Protons + Neutrons) combined due to the energy released when the nucleus is formed. This is known as mass defect. So in this case‚ it release energy in the form of heat in nuclear fission to heat up
