Is iron an energy source?

Iron is not a true energy source like oil or coal to make electricity or heat. It is actually an element that is used in many types of construction work and materials. --------------------------------------------------------- Interestingly Iron is the perfect element. All elements lighter than Iron can be fused together to release energy (this is what powers stars). All elements heavier than iron will tend to split apart releasing energy. In stellar fusion when the Star makes iron in its core the star collapses in a supernova explosion and it is the energy in this explosion that actually makes the elements heavier than Iron. Thus Iron is effectively the antithesis of an energy source, it is an energy sink!


An element that gives off nuclear radiation what?

Sounds to me like radiation from a radioactive isotope. The breaking down part would be the half-life. But the isotope won't completely break down. Only until it reaches a stable form. Such as, radium-226 decays finally to lead-206. During the process it emits charged Alpha particles.


In a nuclear reaction energy is release by the combination of two elements into a new element is the process of what?

The process of combining elements to create a new element is nuclear fusion. As we normally consider it, in this process, a great deal of energy is liberated. They are exothermic. But there are types of fusion that are endothermic, though we only encounter them in something like a supernova.


Fission and fusion is an example of what kind of energy?

One type of atom (element or isotope) is converted to another. This is called nuclear reaction.


Is the binding energy the same for all nuclei?

No. Binding energy differs from element to element,

yes energy is an element :P


Nuclear fusion only releases energy when elements that are lighter than what element are involved?

Nuclear Fusion only releases energy when elements that are higher than what Nuclear Fusion produces certain sotopes of lighter elements.


What would happen if you cut an element into smaller and smaller pieces?

Elements = atoms If you "cut" an element into pieces, essentially split the atom, you release its energy. This is called fission, nuclear fission to be precise, and leads to a nuclear detonation. Depending on the atom you split, there will be a release of energy and radiation.


Why are some elements stable on their own while others are more stable in compound?

Some elements are stable on their own because they have a complete outer energy level. These elements are called noble gases. Hydrogen and Helium have a complete energy level with two electrons and all of the other elements are stable with eight. When an element doesn't have a complete outer energy level it is stable in a compound. This is because it is being combined with another element to complete it's energy level.


What elements have complete outer energy levels and will bond with any other element?

Elements with complete outer energy levels are noble, which means that they will not bond with other elements. They are not (normally) reactive.


Is oxygen a form of chemical energy?

No, oxygen is an element. Chemical energy is usually the thing that hooks elements into compounds.


What energy level in which element moves around the nucleus?

Elements do not move around the nucleus since the nucleus is at the core of the element.


Will naruto be able to fuse another nature chakra with the rasenganlike fire release rasengan?

Nature chakra is the energy from the earth. Not elements. Naruto's element is wind, not fire. It would be very hard, or nigh impossible for Naruto to attain the ability to create a fire Rasengan.


What elements has the lowest ionization energy element Rb Na C or F?

Which element is used for generating atomic energy?

elements used in atomic energy are uranium , thorium , radium, plutonium,etc.


Can a hydrogen nuclear fission reaction restart the hydrogen fusion reaction?

No, hydrogen does not fission. Fission only occurs in heavy elements that are well past the peak in binding energy per nucleon (where binding energy per nucleon is decreasing), and fusion can only occur in light elements which are in the portion of the binding energy curve where binding energy per nucleon is increasing. When you fission a heavy element or fuse light elements, the product nuclei have higher binding energies per nucleon than the original element. This is where the energy release comes from. Check out the Wikipedia article on nuclear binding energy.


Are capacitors and inductors active elements?

Capacitors and inductors are considered passive elements, not active elements, because capacitors and inductors do not supply or amplify energy. An example of an active element is a battery, which supplies energy to a circuit.
