Atoms are split to produce energy, primarily in the form of heat, during nuclear fission. This process involves breaking the nucleus of a heavy atom, such as uranium or plutonium, which releases a significant amount of energy due to the conversion of mass into energy, as described by Einstein's equation E=mc². Additionally, nuclear fission can release neutrons that may initiate further fission reactions, leading to a chain reaction. This principle is harnessed in nuclear power plants and atomic bombs.
other atoms, some loose protons, electrons, and neutrons (which get attached to other atoms and change them) and energy.
When atoms split, particularly in a process called nuclear fission, they produce smaller atoms, known as fission products, along with a significant amount of energy and neutrons. This reaction releases energy due to the conversion of mass into energy, as described by Einstein's equation (E=mc^2). The released neutrons can further induce fission in nearby atoms, potentially leading to a chain reaction.
Nuclear energy.When the atoms are merged, the nuclear energy is a result of what is called Nuclear Fusion. When the atoms are split, the nuclear energy is a result of what is called Nuclear Fission.
When a few atoms undergo fission, they cause many more atoms to split; this process is called an atomic bomb.
In nuclear fission, the reactant atoms are split into resultant atoms, and a release of energy.

The nuclear reaction when atoms split is called fission. Fission is where atoms split into smaller particles or atoms.

you can split atoms that's how they created the atom bomb
No, it is impossible to split atoms unless you use high-tech lab gear.
Let's not split atoms!
A device that splits atoms to produce energy is called a nuclear reactor. Nuclear reactors commonly split uranium-235 or plutonium-239. The heat is created mainly through: 1. An increase of the average kinetic energy of local atoms directly after fission 2. Gamma rays giving more energy to atoms 3. Radioactive decay which also creates heat
