Sort of. Nuclear fusion is when two atoms are fused together to make another one, while nuclear fission is when one atom is split into two atoms. Both processes, however, involve a loss of mass representing the binding energy that was released. This binding energy is manifest as heat. It just happens that the amount of loss is far greater in fusion than in fission. That's why the H-Bomb (a fusion device) is so much more powerful than the A-Bomb (a fission device).
What else can I help you with?
Which do you currently use nuclear fusion or fission?
I currently use nuclear fusion.
Is fission and fusion opposite?
Fission and fusion are opposite nuclear processes. Fission involves splitting a heavy nucleus into lighter ones, releasing energy, while fusion involves combining lighter nuclei to form a heavier nucleus, also releasing energy.
Outline on nuclear energy?
Definition: energy from nuclear fission or fusion: the energy released by nuclear fission or fusion
What causes lesser pollution - nuclear fission or fusion?
Nuclear fusion
What is the antonym of nuclear fusion?
The antonym of nuclear fusion is nuclear fission. Nuclear fusion is the process of combining atomic nuclei to form a heavier nucleus, while nuclear fission is the process of splitting a heavy atomic nucleus into smaller nuclei.
Is strontium produced by nuclear fusion?
No Strontium is produced by nuclear fission not fusion.
What are the type of nuclear reactions?
nuclear fission and nuclear fusion
How do nuclear fusion differ fundamentally from nuclear fission?
Nuclear fusion doesn't produce energy.
The two processes which produce nuclear changes are?
The two processes that produce nuclear changes are nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. Nuclear fusion involves combining two atomic nuclei to form a heavier nucleus, while nuclear fission involves splitting a heavy nucleus into smaller ones. Both processes release a large amount of energy.
What are the main types of nuclear energy?
The two types of nuclear energy are nuclear fission nuclear fusion. In nuclear fission, the nuclei of the atoms are split. In nuclear fusion, as the name suggests, the nuclei of the atoms are joined together.
How nuclear fusion differ to nuclear fission in terms of energy release?
Energy from nuclear fusion is around 400 times more than that of nuclear fission for same mass.
Fission and fusion are examples of what?
Nuclear processes that can release large amounts of energy.
