All atoms are nuclear, in that they all have nuclei. Some atoms have unstable nuclei, making them radioactive.

I'm afraid I have no idea what you mean by "nuclear atoms," unless you meant to say radioactive atoms, in which case the answer is "they have unstable nuclei and they're radioactive."

The products are very different.


How does heavy water differ from regular water?

Normal Water (H20) has hydrogen atoms with one proton and Heavy Water (D20) has a neutron and a proton in it H2 atoms.


Can you explain the difference between nuclear fission and nuclear fusion and how they differ in terms of energy production?

Nuclear fission involves splitting atoms to release energy, while nuclear fusion involves combining atoms to release energy. In terms of energy production, nuclear fusion has the potential to produce more energy than fission, but it is currently more difficult to control and sustain.


How does nuclear chemistry differ from traditional chemistry?

Traditional chemistry deals mainly with the interaction of elements, compounds, and energy. Nuclear chemistry studies the nucleus of atoms, and how it can split, decompose, and interact with energy.


Atoms are merged to produce this type of energy?

Nuclear energy.When the atoms are merged, the nuclear energy is a result of what is called Nuclear Fusion. When the atoms are split, the nuclear energy is a result of what is called Nuclear Fission.


Is splitting of atoms a form of nuclear decay?

No, the splitting of atoms is nuclear fission.


What is the difference between nuclear dynamite and regular dynamite?

What are the names of the particles involve in a nuclear reaction?

If we are just considering the "basic" nuclear reaction in a "regular" nuclear reactor, the particles of interest are the uranium-235 atoms (which are fissionable), and the neutrons, which get loose and cause fissions when they are absorbed by the U-235 atoms. We could broaden this to include some other reactions, but this is a fabulous place to begin to investigate nuclear physics.


What is the splitting of atoms into smaller atoms?

Nuclear fission is the splitting of atoms.


What is the nuclear reaction called when atoms split?

The nuclear reaction when atoms split is called fission. Fission is where atoms split into smaller particles or atoms.


Is fusion nuclear decay or nuclear synthesis?

Fusion is nuclear synthesis, combining atoms of lesser mass into atoms of greater mass. Decay is reducing the mass of larger (unstable) atoms to form atoms of lesser mass.


How do nuclear fusion differ fundamentally from nuclear fission?

Nuclear fusion doesn't produce energy.
