What else can I help you with?
What country had the worlds worst nuclear disaster?
chernobyl?
What is a radioactive nuclear fuel?
All nuclear fuels contain radioactive elements.
What source of energy produces radioactive waste?
Nuclear Energy
What country in Ukraine experienced a nuclear disaster?
The country that was affected most is Belarus, because it is the smallest country and 1 part of 3 is dead. Then goes Ukraine because it is bigger and it least effected. And then goes Russia because it is giant and affected least. Good luck!
What are radioactive wastes a byproduct of?
A+ Nuclear energy
How does a nuclear disaster occur?
A nuclear disaster may occur when the radioactive materials are mishandled and which may lead to radioactive exposure or a chain reaction of nuclear fission, fusion. Most of these disasters are induced by the man made mistakes.
How does a nuclear disaster form?
Detonation of a nuclear device, discharge of radioactive materials (whether accidental or deliberate), spillage or distribution of radioactive materials.
What country had the worlds worst nuclear disaster?
chernobyl?
Which country did the Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster take place?
That is in Ukrainia.
What element was being used in Chernobyl?
The Chernobyl disaster involved the release of radioactive materials, specifically radioactive isotopes of iodine, cesium, and strontium, which are byproducts of nuclear fission reactions.
Which is a major negative impact of the use of nuclear power?
some are: radioactive waste, increased cancer rates, potential for catastrophic disaster, presence of highly corrupt nuclear industry
What continent has the worlds worst nuclear disaster?
Asia, specifically the Chernobyl Disaster in the former Soviet Union (Russia), in which a nuclear power plant went critical and melted down, rendering the city uninhabitable and causing radioactive clouds to travel globally.
What famous disaster happened at Chernobyl in Russia?
There was no famous disaster (or anything else) at Chernobyl in Russia as there is no such place. However for the disaster that occurred in Chernobyl in the Ukraine, please see the related question.
What was the fuel used in chernobyl?
The Chernobyl disaster in 1986 involved a nuclear reactor that used uranium-235 as its fuel. This radioactive fuel contributed to the catastrophic explosion and subsequent release of radioactive materials into the environment.
What is the most famous nuclear disaster in Europe?
The most famous Nuclear disaster in Europe was the 1986 Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Disaster in Ukraine. Nuclear radiation from an explosion in one of the four reactors leaked into the surrounding area and the near by city of Pripyat. Over 50,000 people had to be evacuated. 50 workers and firemen were killed and thousands of others died of cancers related with being exposed to the radiation from the disaster. Chernobyl and Pripyat are still heavily radioactive today and can still cause nuclear mutations if exposed for to long.
Where did the worst nuclear disaster occur?
The worst nuclear disaster occurred at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine on April 26, 1986. A reactor explosion released large quantities of radioactive particles into the atmosphere, contaminating vast areas of Europe. The disaster led to severe health impacts and long-term environmental damage, prompting widespread evacuations and a significant reevaluation of nuclear safety protocols worldwide.
How did the nuclear disaster in Chernobyl cause environmental issues in Europe?
The Chernobyl nuclear disaster released a large amount of radioactive particles into the atmosphere, which were carried by winds across Europe. This resulted in contamination of agricultural land, water sources, and ecosystems in various European countries. The radioactive fallout led to health issues in wildlife and humans, and necessitated extensive cleanup and monitoring efforts.
