either atomic decomposition or nuclear fission, fission being a uranium-235 or other such isotope having a slow moving neutron fired into it's nucleus.
The nuclear reaction when atoms split is called fission. Fission is where atoms split into smaller particles or atoms.
When large unstable nuclei split because the electric for is greater than the nuclear force is nuclear decay.
Nuclear energy.When the atoms are merged, the nuclear energy is a result of what is called Nuclear Fusion. When the atoms are split, the nuclear energy is a result of what is called Nuclear Fission.
Nuclear decay
This phenomenon is called nuclear fission.
it is called natural radioactivity
When uranium atoms split, it is called nuclear fission. This process releases a large amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation.
Splitting atoms is called fission.
A nuclear chain reaction. This is what happens in a nuclear reactor.
The process in which each split atom gives up neutrons which in turn split other atoms is called a nuclear fission chain reaction.
Yes, atoms can split in a process called nuclear fission. This usually occurs in heavy elements when they absorb a neutron and split into smaller elements, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This phenomenon is the basis for nuclear power plants and atomic bombs.
