Why do 2 photons have to be created instead of just 1 during annihilation? I talked about conservation of energy and momentum, but not sure if it's right.

Don't think energy has any relevance since it's conserved in a single or dual photon. I talked about momentum is conserved and about that they have to go in the opposite direction at the same speeds as the colliding particles did or something along the lines of that.

I said because certain factors such as baryon number and charge have to be conserved so an antiparticle is created etc. etc.
