If it is not properly watched and bad materials are used then disasters can happen, like in Cherynobl.

∙ 12y agoOne big drawback of the currently used fission technology is that it produces material which is usable in an atomic bomb, and relatively easy to separate from the rest of the spent fuel.

What type of nuclear reaction involves one nucleus breaking into multiple nuclei?
Nuclear fission
Which nuclear reaction occurs when one nucleus splits into two nuclei?
Nuclear Fission
What is a sentence using nuclear fusion?
Fission power is the only realistic source of ecologically sound power, for at least the next 50 to 100 years.
Which one of these two process is still used today Nuclear Fission or Fusion?
Fission. Fusion has never been used on Earth, except for nuclear weapon tests.
Is solar energy nuclear fission or fusion?
The process generating solar energy is one of nuclear fusion.
What type of nuclear reaction involves one nucleus breaking into multiple nuclei?
Nuclear fission
What is one drawback of using desktop virtualization?
is no drawback
What are the negatives about using Nuclear Energy?
This is not correct. Assuming "Using Nuclear Energy" means using it to generate electricity in a reactor. A nuclear reactor is a power plant, that uses nuclear fission to eventually generate electricity. An atom bomb also uses nuclear fission to generate energy causing an explosion. However, due to fundamental differences between the two a nuclear reactor cannot explode like an atom bomb.
What is the process if the particle of a nuclear reaction is also one of the products?
nuclear fission
What is the nuclear fission is the fusing of nuclei to become one single atom?
No. That's a description of the process of nuclear " fusion ".Nuclear " fission " is the splitting of one single atomic nucleus into two or more nuclei.
Which nuclear reaction occurs when one nucleus splits into two nuclei?
Nuclear Fission
Where can you acquire large quantities of Cs-137?
Cs-137 is one of the mixed fission byproducts of nuclear fission. You get Cs-137 in a nuclear reactor.
What is a sentence using nuclear fusion?
Fission power is the only realistic source of ecologically sound power, for at least the next 50 to 100 years.
What are the pros and cons of nuclear fisson?
There are no pros or cons of nuclear fission, it simply IS. Nuclear fission is a natural phenomena that has always existed, no matter how much one likes or dislikes it.However there are pros and cons to how humans choose to use or not use nuclear fission; the technologies we choose to build with it.
Which one of these two process is still used today Nuclear Fission or Fusion?
Fission. Fusion has never been used on Earth, except for nuclear weapon tests.
For a sustainable fission reaction each fission must produce exactly additional fission reaction(s).?
A stable nuclear fission reaction will be sustained if every fission produces one additional fission reaction.
Is solar energy nuclear fission or fusion?
The process generating solar energy is one of nuclear fusion.
