There is no opposite. There may be alternatives, but it depends on the specific field in which the word 'nuclear' is being used.

Is nuclear energy and nuclear fuel different?
Nuclear fuel is the fuel used to produce nuclear energy.
Can two anions combine to form an ionic compound?
Ions combine by electrostatic attraction. Opposite charges attracting each other. The attraction of opposite charges and repelling of like charges is the basis of one of the fundamental forces described in physics. Others are gravity, magnetism (actually electricity and magnetism are combined into electromagnetism), the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force.
What is the antonym of nuclear fusion?
Nuclear fission.
What type of reaction happens inside a nuclear plant?
A nuclear chain reaction nuclear fission
A reaction in combining smaller atomic nuclei is?
nuclear fusion
Is nuclear fusion more cheaper and easier to produce then nuclear fission?
No. Just the opposite.
What are examples of opposite forces that pull?
gravity electro static magnetic weak nuclear strong nuclear sexes
What phase of mitosis is essentially the opposite of pro-phase in terms of nuclear changes?
Telophase, as that is when the nuclear envelope reforms.
Why is nuclear power generators popular?
I thought the opposite was true, that they are not popular!
Does nuclear energy use a lot of energy?
No, the opposite, it releases a lot of energy
The process of combining two small nuclei into one nucleus of larger mass is called?
Combining two atomic nuclei is called nuclear fusion.
What is the oppoiste of fission?
I am not sure if there is an opposite of fission, where an atom is split in half, but if there was an opposite it would probably be nuclear fusion, where two nuclei join together giving off energy. Nuclear fusion occurs in space, and it is how the sun gives off its energy.
What is the opposite force to the strong nuclear force?
The electro-magnetic force, I guess. The strong nuclear force holds the nucleons together and the electro-magnetic tries to push them apart.
What is the universal force that acts on the protons and neutrons of an atom?
The strong nuclear force acts only on neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom. The opposite would be a weak nuclear force.
Which of the universal forces act only on protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom?
The strong nuclear force acts only on neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom. The opposite would be a weak nuclear force.
What is nuclear division?
The process by which a nucleus divides, resulting in the segregation of the genome to opposite poles of a dividing cell.
What is the difference between nuclear reaction in a nuclear pl ant and in a nuclear bomb?
The answer can certainly be more complicated and detailed, but simply- the reaction in a nuclear power point is designed to be a "slow" controlled reaction that can be monitored and "shut down", with a nuclear power point having multiple safeguards. To the contrary, a nuclear weapon's reaction is designed to be the opposite- violent and uncontrollable so that once detonation has begun, the results are catastrophic.
