Well, a nuclear reaction is where atoms are bouncing around and collide. They brake down into smaller or equal sized particles and this gives off fairly high amounts of energy. Just wiki it if you want a professional answer...
Nuclear fission is the primary type of nuclear reaction that occurs in a reactor. It involves the splitting of heavy atomic nuclei to release energy.
TNT (trinitrotoluene) is a conventional explosive used to trigger the beginning of a nuclear reaction in some nuclear weapons. When the TNT detonates, it generates the high temperatures and pressures needed to initiate the fission process in the nuclear material, causing a chain reaction to occur.
An example of a nuclear reaction is nuclear fusion, where two light atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This reaction is the process that powers the sun and other stars.
The minimum amount of material needed to sustain a nuclear reaction depends on the type of reaction. For example, in a nuclear fission reaction, a critical mass of fissile material is needed to sustain a chain reaction. In a fusion reaction, high temperatures and pressures are needed to overcome the electrostatic repulsion between nuclei.
Physicists Enrico Fermi and his team at the University of Chicago were the first to produce and describe an artificial nuclear reaction in 1942. They created the first controlled nuclear chain reaction as part of the Manhattan Project.
Q- value is a deterministic factor for the possibility of nuclear reaction. it is the difference of rest masses of the product and reactant of the reaction, and if it comes positive this means some energy added for the reaction to happen, and if it comes negative then the reaction will progress with the emission of energy.
The energy released by a nuclear reaction, especially by fission or fusion.

A nuclear reaction is not considered a living thing.
Nuclear energy is either:fission reaction, orfusion reaction, orradioactive decay
In a nuclear reaction, matter is converted into energy.
The nuclear chain reaction in a nuclear reactor is started by the splitting of uranium atoms, a process known as nuclear fission.
The q value formula is used to calculate the energy released or absorbed in a nuclear reaction. It is calculated by subtracting the total mass of the reactants from the total mass of the products, and then multiplying the difference by the speed of light squared (c2).
