Can diamond atoms be split?

Diamond atoms cannot be split using normal chemical reactions because they are held together by strong covalent bonds. To split diamond atoms, extremely high temperatures and pressures would be needed to overcome the bond strength.


Can atoms be split?

Yes, atoms can be split through a process called nuclear fission. This process involves splitting the nucleus of an atom, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of radiation. Nuclear power plants use this process to generate electricity.


what molecule can split hydrogen and oxygen atoms?

The hydroxide ion OH- , water H2O, hydronium ion H3O+ , and heavy water H2O2


Ozone is created when oxygen?

is exposed to ultraviolet radiation from the sun, causing oxygen molecules to split apart into two separate oxygen atoms. These oxygen atoms can then combine with other oxygen molecules to form ozone (O3).


What uranium splits into?

Uranium 235 will naturally decay (with a half-life of 700 million years) into thorium 231. If it encounters a neutron, it can split into 2 or 3 smaller atoms; the exact atoms formed may vary.Uranium 235 will naturally decay (with a half-life of 700 million years) into thorium 231.
