What is the atomic number and atomic mass number of the element that is formed in the following nuclear reaction that takes place in the sun?
The atomic number is 2, and the atomic mass is 4 (helium)
When and where did Pakistan's first nuclear explosion takes place?
Pakistan's first atomic nuclear explosion took place at "Chaghai Hills" (Balochistan) on May 11 and 13, 1998.
Is cesium in atomic bombs?
No. However the radioactive isotope cesium-135 is a product of the fission that takes place in a nuclear explosion.
How did nuclear powered energy get its name?
It takes its energy from the atomic nucleus.
What nuclear reaction takes places when two atomic nuclei COMBINE into one large nucleus?
Nuclear fusion.
What are some everyday examples of atomic energy?
Atomic energy? If you're talking about chemical energy (from the bonds between atoms) then anything on fire is an example. If you're talking about nuclear energy (from the nucleus in an atom) , that can be found in nuclear power plants or in the sun. There aren't really any everyday examples of nuclear energy because it takes a great deal of energy to manipulate atomic nuclei. Radioactive decay is another example of nuclear energy. So are cosmic rays that strike earth's atmosphere (mostly protons).
What is the estimates for how long it takes nuclear waste to completely decay?
dudee........You wont see it. Its 10,000 years.
Any change in an atom's center is called?
When an atom has a nuclear reaction that converts it to a different element, that is a form of radioactive decay. Even the chain reaction that takes place when an atomic bomb explodes is radioactive decay, taking place more rapidly than usual.
Will nuclear waste be dangerous to future generations?
Absolutely ! Nuclear waste takes hundreds - perhaps thousands of years to decay. Many generations of people to come will have to manage the storage and disposal of nuclear waste.
Part of power plant where fission takes place?
In a nuclear power plant, fission takes place in the core.
What is the main process that takes place in the sun?
nuclear fusion
What nuclear fusion takes place at room temperature?
None.
