In a nuclear fission reaction which component both triggers the reaction and is produced by the reaction?

What type of reaction happens in a nuclear power plant?
Nuclear fission
What is splitting of atomic nuclei?
FISSION. nobody on this website knows the answer..... SHAME
Is fusion a chain reaction?
Not exactly, nuclear chain reactions are a series of nuclear fissions initiated by neutrons produced in a preceding fission.
What particle is used to start nuclear fission?
In actuality, a spontaneous fission event begins a nuclear chain reaction. It kick starts a nuclear chain reaction. And a neutron from that fission will initiate another fission to continue and rev up that nuclear chain reaction.
What is it called when nuclear fission is repeated?
It is called nuclear chain fission reaction.
What is the main difference between breeder nuclear fission and convention nuclear fission?
In breeder nuclear fission more fuel is produced than what consumed. In conventional nuclear fission less fuel is produced than what is consumed.
In a nuclear fission reaction a freely moving neutron?
In a nuclear fission reaction, a freely moving neutron undergoes neutron capture and initiates the nuclear fission of a fuel atom.
What is the most common nuclear reaction?
Nuclear fission.
Where does the reaction occur in nuclear fission?
Nuclear energy
What term describes the reaction process in a fission reaction?
another name for nuclear fission is: E=MC squared
What type of reaction happens inside a nuclear plant?
