During fission of uranium-235, the nucleus of uranium-235 absorbs a neutron and becomes unstable. It then splits into two smaller nuclei (such as barium and krypton), releasing energy and additional neutrons in the process. The formula for this process can be represented as: U-235 + 1 neutron → Ba-141 + Kr-92 + 3 neutrons + energy

What is the formula of nuclear bomb?
The formula for a nuclear bomb involves the process of nuclear fission or fusion. In the case of fission bombs, such as the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the formula involves the splitting of heavy atomic nuclei like uranium or plutonium. For fusion bombs, like thermonuclear weapons, the formula involves the fusion of light atomic nuclei like hydrogen isotopes. The specific details and equations involved are complex and highly classified due to the sensitive nature of nuclear weapons technology.
Does Uranium 238 and 235 release neutrons in nature as they do in a fission process?
Uranium-238 and Uranium-235 do not release neutrons spontaneously in nature in the same way they do during a fission process. Neutrons are typically required to initiate the fission process in nuclear reactions. In natural settings, radioactive decay processes such as alpha and beta decay occur in uranium isotopes, but not neutron release.
What term is use to describe splitting a large atomic nucleus into smaller ones?
Nuclear fission is defined as splitting large nuclei into smaller ones.
What process takes place when uranium -235 splits into two smaller nuclei plus neutrons?
The process is called nuclear fission. When uranium-235 splits, it releases a large amount of energy along with smaller nuclei and multiple neutrons. This chain reaction continues as these neutrons can cause additional uranium-235 atoms to undergo fission.
The splitting of a heavy nucleus is called?
The splitting of a heavy nucleus is called nuclear fission. This process releases a large amount of energy and is the principle behind nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
What is a particle released during the fission of uranium235?
One of the particles released during the fission of uranium-235 is a neutron. When uranium-235 undergoes fission, it splits into two smaller atoms along with several neutrons. These neutrons can then go on to initiate additional fission reactions in a chain reaction.
What is true about the fission of uranium235?
The reaction produces more neutrons than were needed to start it.
What is the form of nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy as used in power plants results from fission of uranium235 and plutonium239
What is the only thing that can get changed in a balancing equation?
It is the mass defect during a fission reaction. Enrgy evolved during a radioactive fission can be calculated using the formula gived by Einstein e =mc
Comparison of fission fusion and transmutation?
Fission is the splitting of heavy nuclei, mostly Uranium235 but also Plutonium 239, which is made to happen in nuclear fission reactors, and releases energy. Transmutation of elements occurs in this process as when the heavy nucleus splits, two lighter nuclei of other elements such as caesium, strontium, iodine, are formed, these are the fission products. Fusion is the joining together of two nuclei, the ones being experimented with being deuterium and tritium, both isotopes of hydrogen. These transmute to helium during fusion.
Atomic energy is the energy of heat mass or fluorescence?
Atomic energy is produced when atoms of uranium235 or other fissile material split, or undergo fission. It is nothing to do with fluorescence, and I don't understand 'heat mass'
Is energy released during fission but absorbed during fusion?
Energy is released during fusion and fission.
What is fission product?
Fission products are the fragments resulting from the fission of heavy nuclids during nuclear fission process
During nuclear fission, mass is converted into what?
During nuclear fission, mass is converted into energy.
Which describes what happens during a chain reaction?
Neutrons released during a fission reaction trigger other fission reactions.
What is one bad use of uranium235?
can cause lung cancer
What is needed to produce different isotopes during fission?
The fission reaction must be possible.
