What happens when you-235 undergoes fission?
When U-235 undergoes fission, it absorbs a neutron and then splits into two smaller nuclei, along with releasing energy, additional neutrons, and gamma rays. This process is triggered by the bombardment of neutrons and is the basis of nuclear power generation and nuclear weapons.
What mineral is used in nuclear power?
Uranium is the primary mineral used in nuclear power plants as a fuel source for nuclear fission reactions. It undergoes a process of enrichment to increase the concentration of the Uranium-235 isotope, which is the type of uranium that undergoes fission in nuclear reactors.
What kind of reaction does oxygen undergo fusion or fission?
Oxygen undergoes fusion reactions in the cores of massive stars, where it can fuse into heavier elements. Oxygen does not undergo fission reactions naturally.
How many protons in uranium-235 atomic number 92 after undergoes fission?
After undergoing fission, the number of protons in the uranium-235 nucleus will remain the same. Uranium-235 has 92 protons, and fission does not change the number of protons in the nucleus.
How much energy produced in fission of an atom of uranium compair to an carbon atom?
The energy produced by fission of a uranium atom is millions of times greater than that produced by a carbon atom. Uranium fission releases a large amount of energy due to its high nuclear binding energy per nucleon, whereas carbon fission releases only a fraction of that energy. This difference in energy release is the basis for the use of uranium in nuclear power plants.
What is a particle released during the fission of uranium235?
One of the particles released during the fission of uranium-235 is a neutron. When uranium-235 undergoes fission, it splits into two smaller atoms along with several neutrons. These neutrons can then go on to initiate additional fission reactions in a chain reaction.
Are two daughter cells produced when bacteria undergoes binary fission?
Yes.
What is true about the fission of uranium235?
The reaction produces more neutrons than were needed to start it.
What is the form of nuclear energy?
Nuclear energy as used in power plants results from fission of uranium235 and plutonium239
Atomic energy is the energy of heat mass or fluorescence?
Atomic energy is produced when atoms of uranium235 or other fissile material split, or undergo fission. It is nothing to do with fluorescence, and I don't understand 'heat mass'
What is induced nuclear fission?
We might think of induced nuclear fission as a fission reaction that occurs when a neutron is captured by, say, a uranium-235 atom and that atomic nucleus undergoes fission as a result. Most all of the fission events within a nuclear reactor or nuclear weapon are induced. Given this, we might then compare that fission event to a spontaneous fission event wherein the atomic nucleus of a uranium-235 atom spontaneously undergoes fission without having captured a neutron.
What are the elements produced by a fission reaction?
1. Fission products (lighter elements) 2. Energy from the loss of mass, appears initially as kinetic energy which is absorbed in the fuel bulk and transformed to thermal energy (heat) 3. Free neutrons-average 2.5 per fission 4. Gamma radiation
In a nuclear fission reaction a freely moving neutron?
In a nuclear fission reaction, a freely moving neutron undergoes neutron capture and initiates the nuclear fission of a fuel atom.
What kind of energy is produced by both fission and fusion processes?
Nuclear energy is produced by both fission and fusion processes.
What form of energy is produced when Uranium-235 undergoes fission?
just say you hate physics or you wouldnt be looking this answer up. i did the same thing and was asked to answer it rather than finding he anser on this site!
When two identical cells are produced is it binary fission or conjugation?
binary fission
What is a nuclear reaction?
One large nucleus, typically uranium, undergoes fission and releases several neutrons along with the major fission products. These neutrons strike more uranium atoms and are absorbed by the nucleus causing it to become unstable. It undergoes fission releasing more neutrons and more fission products. These neutrons strike more uranium atoms etc.
