What type of reaction is synthesis?

Answer 1

photosynthesis is the reaction that takes place in which plants turn CO2 and water (H20) in the presence of sunlight into glucose (C6H1206) and oxygen

Answer 2

Fusion is a reaction where 2 elements combine to make a heavier element, and release a lot of energy at the same time. It is the opposite of fission. As of yet, we can only fuse elements at a very high temperature.

Answer 3

Atoms of a 'lighter' element collide and 'stick' together to make a heavier element.

The most notable reaction, takes place in stars. Where Hydrogen fuses to make Helium, in the process energy is produced. Further fusion then takes place, to make other elements

Answer 4

Fission reaction is the splitting of heavy nucleus, by bombardment with a neutron, into mainly two fragments of smaller nuclei plus 2-3 neutrons and release of energy. Example is the nuclear fission of Uranium-235.

Fusion reaction is the merging of two or more light nuclei upon collision and formation of a heavier nucleus and release of energy. Example is merging of four hydrogen nuclei into one helium nucleus and release of energy. This is the source of solar energy.

Answer 5

Nuclear fusion is a nuclear reaction, not a chemical reaction.

In nuclear fusion, the nuclei of atoms combine in order to form new atoms (hence the term nuclear reaction). This type of reaction is mainly concerned with the movement of protons and neutrons. This is opposed to chemical reactions, which are mainly concerned with the interaction of electrons - the atoms remain of the same element, and the atomic nuclei are unchanged.

Answer 6

Nuclear fusion describes the process of any two atoms, and specifically their nuclei, colliding and merging to form a new nucleus. In stars such as the sun, the fusion is of two hydrogen atoms into one helium atom, resulting in the release of huge amounts of energy.

Answer 7

Fusion is a type of nuclear reaction. Fusion occurs when two differing nuclei strike each other at very high speeds and form a different nuclear material.

Answer 8

No, fusion is a type of nuclear reaction.
