What else can I help you with?
How atoms and molecules can gain or lose energy in discrete amount?
The enrgy is always lost or gained in only the definite amount that is called as discrete or packet energy.
What are atoms that have gained energy called?
Atoms that have gained energy are called excited atoms. This means that their electrons have moved to higher energy levels, and they are in an unstable state before they release the energy in the form of light or heat to return to a lower energy state.
What are Atoms that have lost or gained called?
Atoms that have lost or gained electron(s) are called ions. If they are positively charged (lost an electron(s)), they are called cations. If they are negatively charged (gained an electron(s), they are called anions.
What is the energy required to break a chemical bond and form neutral isolated atoms called?
The energy required to break a chemical bond and form neutral isolated atoms is called bond dissociation energy or bond energy. It represents the amount of energy needed to break a specific chemical bond in a molecule into its isolated atoms.
What measures the amount of energy in the motion of atoms?
Since heat and energy are the same it is called Kinetic energy. The temperature is what makes up the average particles in motion which are in all atoms.
What are Atoms that carry an electrical charge called because they have gained or lost electrons?
Atoms that carry an electrical charge because they gained or lost electrons are called ions. An atom that has lost electrons will be positively charged, and it is called cation. On the other hand, an atom that has gained electrons will be negatively charged, and it is called anion.
When uranium atoms split what is it called?
When uranium atoms split, it is called nuclear fission. This process releases a large amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation.
What type of energy is produced by splitting then nuclei of atoms?
Nuclear energy is produced by splitting the nuclei of atoms in a process called nuclear fission. This process releases a large amount of energy in the form of heat, which can be harnessed to generate electricity.
What energy source comes from splitting up atoms?
Nuclear energy is generated by splitting atoms in a process called nuclear fission. This releases a significant amount of heat energy, which can be harnessed to generate electricity in nuclear power plants.
How energy released in nuclear energy?
In nuclear energy, energy is released through a process called nuclear fission or fusion. In nuclear fission, heavy atoms like uranium split into smaller ones, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. In nuclear fusion, lighter atoms combine to form heavier ones, also releasing a significant amount of energy.
What is Energy created from the fission of atoms?
Energy is created from the fission of atoms through the splitting of atomic nuclei, which releases a large amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. This process is used in nuclear power plants to generate electricity.
What do you call energy made from split atoms?
Nuclear fission, made from the splitting of U-238 atoms mixed with a small ratio of U-235 atoms. For more information, visit the Nuclear Energy Institute's websithe @ nei.org
