Fusion is bringing two lighter nuclei together and make it one heavier nucleus.

Fission is breaking a heavier nucleus and two lighter nuclei are formed.

Fusion is going on in the Sun and Stars.

Fission is taking place in nuclear reactor

In case of fusion no chance of getting harmful radiations, hence known as clear energy. But energy produced per one fusion will be very low and that will be nearly 25 MeV.

But fission gives out radioactive materials and so they would give out harmful radiations. But energy per fission will be appox 200 MeV.

Hydrogen bomb is an example for fusion process

Atom bomb is an example for fission process.

What is the main difference between fission and fusion in terms of chemistry?

fission is the slitting of one element to produce energy but fusion is two element combined to produce that amount of energy.eg fission:Ba and for fusion H.
