In a heterolytic fission, both the electrons shared in the bond go to one atom (almost always the more electronegative atom). In homolytic fission, the electrons go to the two separate atoms.

∙ 13y agohomolytic cleavage results in each atom previously sharing the bond to keep one electron each. In heterolytic cleavage one atom takes both electrons with it.

Which do you currently use nuclear fusion or fission?
Fission
What organisms use fission method?
Single celled organisms, bacteria and protozoa, reproduce by fission.
Do protists use binary fission?
Protists do use binary fission. It's up to you to find out the other methods of reproduction now.
How can nuclear fission be used?
In general, physicists, and specifically nuclear physicists, use nuclear fission in experiments.
Can Nuclear fission be controlled?
Yes. Nuclear power plants and nuclear powered ships and submarines use controlled fission reactions.
What is homolytic fission compound?
The cleavage of covalent bond sharing electron are acquired by both of shared atom are known as homolytic fission
How many types of bond fission are there?
homolytic and hetrolytic
Write an equation state the conditions the type of fission and the mechanism for the reaction of Pentane and Chlorine?
Equation: C5H12 + 1/2Cl2 --> C5H12ClConditions: UV light Type of fission: homolytic Mechanism: ?
Which do you currently use nuclear fusion or fission?
Fission
What are the 3 steps in the free radical substitution?
Step one- Initiation. (Homolytic fission must be the first step to generate the free radical)Step two- Propagation. (Until the reagents run out)Step 3- Termination. (Removes the free radical)
How do you use protons in nuclear fission?
Protons are not the active part in fission, they are just there. It is neutrons that determine the fission behaviour
What method do prokaryotes use for cell reproduction?
Prokaryotic fission or binary fission is the process that prokaryotes use to reproduce. This means that they reproduce asexually instead of sexually.
What are facts about fission?
Fission is splitting of atoms into two parts.We use Fission to make light and heat for Earth.We use Fission sometimes for medicine.Fission is located in the middle of the Star.Have less energy than Fusion.Nika S.S.
What organisms use fission method?
Single celled organisms, bacteria and protozoa, reproduce by fission.
What kind of nuclear reaction does an atomic bomb use?
Fission bombs use fission. Fusion bombs use fusion. Although atomic bomb is usually used for fission bombs, it technically applies equally to either.
How is fission used to calculate the energy required?
You don't use fission to do the actual calculation. Fission can RESULT in energy being released, though.
Do protists use binary fission?
Protists do use binary fission. It's up to you to find out the other methods of reproduction now.
