How is a nuclear fission reaction controlled in nuclear reactor?

Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.

A nuclear fission process in which neutrons produced by fission trigger more fissions?

nuclear chain reactionNote: there are also chemical chain reactions (e.g. polymerization), of course they involve no neutrons


Are nuclear reactions and nuclear fusions the same thing?

Nuclear fusion is a nuclear reaction, but so is fission. So not all nuclear reactions are fission.


Can Nuclear fission be controlled?

Yes. Nuclear power plants and nuclear powered ships and submarines use controlled fission reactions.

Reaction that involves a change in the nucleus?

The general term is "nuclear reaction". An atom may emit alpha, beta, or gamma rays; it may split into two or three smaller parts (fission), or two lighter atoms may combine into a heavier one (fusion).


What type of reactions can generate the most energy of nuclear?

Fusion and fission nuclear reactions.


Is it a fission or fusion reaction?

Fission and fusion are different nuclear reactions.


What is the transformation of uranium?

- radioactive decay - nuclear fission - nuclear reactions


Can Nuclear fission be controlled?

Yes. Nuclear power plants and nuclear powered ships and submarines use controlled fission reactions.


When fission is not controlled how is it used?

Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.
