iron
organells associated with liberation of energy
The sun and other stars.
A nuclear reaction in which nuclei combine to form more massive nuclei with the simultaneous release of energy.
The products of nuclear fusion are slightly less massive than the mass of the reactants because some of the mass of the reactants is converted into nuclear binding energy to hold the fusion product together.
At Hiroshima, the bomb itself was a nuclear weapon. The operative word there is nuclear. Nuclear changes brought about a massive release of that nuclear energy. The nuclear energy was converted into mechanical and electromagnetic energy, which resulted in the creation of a huge amount of thermal energy.The mechanical energy was carried outward in the blast wave. The combination of these things caused both physical and chemical changes, the latter owing to the electromagnetic and thermal (heat) energy.
The energy in stars comes from nuclear fusion. Hydrogen atoms are continually fused together to created helium and with it, massive amounts of energy.
The human element.
Uranium
We know that nickel-62 has the highest nuclear binding energy per nucleon of any element.
Uranium.
Uranium 235
An explosive device that uses massive conventional explosives to split radioactive atoms and cause a MASSIVE release of energy by nuclear fission or fusion. A BIG BOOM!!!!
Uranium
Uranaium U
One type of atom (element or isotope) is converted to another. This is called nuclear reaction.
No, nuclear power plants get their energy from fissionof the heavy element uranium, the sun gets its energy from fusion of the light element hydrogen.
One of the radioactive elements used for nuclear energy is 235U92, commonly stated as U-235.
