How is hydrogen changed into helium in nuclear fission?
Hydrogen is not changed into helium in nuclear fission. In nuclear physics, nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more lighter atomic nuclei are forced together and are fused into a heavier nucleus. In the case of the formation of hydrogen into helium, our sun does that in what is called the proton-proton reaction.
Fission is used in the production of?
nuclear energy
What particle is used to start nuclear fission?
In actuality, a spontaneous fission event begins a nuclear chain reaction. It kick starts a nuclear chain reaction. And a neutron from that fission will initiate another fission to continue and rev up that nuclear chain reaction.
What is splitting of atomic nuclei?
Splitting of atomic nuclei, also known as nuclear fission, is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom is split into smaller parts. This process releases a significant amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. Nuclear fission is used in nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
Is uranium the only element that can be used in nuclear fission?
No, uranium is not the only element that can be used in nuclear fission. Other elements like plutonium and thorium can also undergo nuclear fission reactions. Uranium-235 is the most commonly used isotope, but plutonium-239 and thorium-232 can also sustain fission reactions in certain nuclear reactors.
What atom is broken to create nuclear fission?
hydrogen atom is broken to create nuclear fission
What is used as a trigger in a hydrogen bomb?
A traditional nuclear fission bomb is used as a trigger in a hydrogen bomb. The explosion from the fission bomb generates the high temperatures and pressures needed to initiate the fusion reaction in the hydrogen bomb.
Do nuclear bombs use nuclear fusion or fission?
Almost all modern nuclear explosive devices use some of each. The early atomic bombs used only fission. All hydrogen bombs use both fission and fusion. Some things you might want to look up are: boosted fission bomb, external electrical fusor neutron source, the plutonium "fission sparkplug" used in each stage of a hydrogen bomb, depleted uranium hydrogen bomb tamper can provide up to 90% of the total yield through fast fission.
How is hydrogen changed into helium in nuclear fission?

In the case of the formation of hydrogen into helium, our sun does that in what is called the proton-proton reaction.
Is hydrogen ever created in nature by nuclear fission?
Yes In high temperature gas cooled nuclear fission reactors using the nuclear process heat.
Nuclear fission where is it found?
stars.... stars are made of hydrogen, helium, and nuclear fusion
How are nuclear fusion and nuclear fission different from each other?
Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are two types of nuclear reactions that release energy. Fusion combines atomic nuclei to create heavier elements, while fission splits atomic nuclei into smaller fragments. Fusion powers the sun and hydrogen bombs, while fission is used in nuclear power plants and atomic bombs.
Where has nuclear fission been used?
Nuclear fission has been used in nuclear bombs and is currently being used in every nuclear power plant on the earth.
Maximam dengrus bomb between nuclear bomb or hydrogen bomb?
If you are asking which has the maximum danger, a hydrogen bomb is one type of nuclear bomb. In general, nuclear bombs can be fission (called atomic) or fusion (hydrogen) A fusion bomb is larger than an fission bomb, and actually uses a fission bomb to start the fusion reaction.
What element is used in nuclear fission and is radioactive but is not uranium?
We can use plutonium in nuclear fission devices.
What is the hydrogen to helium reaction that is occurring inside the sun called?
nuclear fission
Can fission take place in the nucleus of hydrogen atom?
No, it cannot. Fission is the "splitting" of an atom, and a hydrogen atom will not fission. Some hydrogen atoms have a neutron stuck to the proton in their nucleus. Some even have two neutrons stuck to that proton. These neutrons can be "knocked loose" in something like a nuclear chair reaction in a weapon. The neutrons then can contribute to the building of the nuclear chain reaction. But fission doesn't happen to hydrogen.
