What type of reaction is characterized by a release of energy?
The general term for a chemical reaction that releases heat is an exothermic reaction. The energy released is called enthalpy.A reaction that releases energy is called an exothermic reaction.
Is nuclear fission endothermic or exothermic?
Nuclear fission is exothermic, as it releases a large amount of energy when a heavy nucleus is split into smaller fragments. This energy is usually in the form of heat and can be harnessed for power generation in nuclear reactors.
Is water vapor condensing on a glass exothermic or endothermic?
Steam itself is not endothermic or exothermic - only chemical reactions can be labelled as exothermic or endothermic the reaction whithin the steam can only be exothermic or endothermic
What is the term that means to give off energy?
You may be talking about "exothermic"? An exothermic process releases heat. or maybe 'incandesce'??
What part of a nuclear reactor system contains uranium?
The fuel rods in a nuclear reactor system contain uranium. This uranium undergoes a nuclear reaction, generating heat used to produce electricity.
When do Nuclear fusion release energy?
Whenever there is an exothermic reaction.
Name two advantages of generating electricity using nuclear power?
1. Increased electrical generating capacity provides for more complex weapons, environmental, navigation and control systems. 2. A little known fact is that all nuclear powered vessels can redirect their electrical generating capacity to power cities or towns that have lost their electrical power during a disaster.

Energy is released when smaller nuclei join to form a larger nucleus in a process called what?
Nuclear fusion
Is nuclear fission endothermic or exothermic?
Nuclear fission is exothermic, as it releases a large amount of energy when a heavy nucleus is split into smaller fragments. This energy is usually in the form of heat and can be harnessed for power generation in nuclear reactors.
What are the characteristics and implications of an endothermic nuclear reaction?
An endothermic nuclear reaction absorbs energy from its surroundings to occur. This type of reaction typically requires a higher input of energy to initiate and sustain compared to an exothermic reaction. The implications of an endothermic nuclear reaction include the potential for greater control over the reaction process and the ability to produce specific isotopes or elements through nuclear transmutation. Additionally, endothermic reactions can be used in nuclear power generation and scientific research to study nuclear processes.
Why is a nuclear fission an exothermic?
It is exothermic because it releases energy out of fission.
Is nuclear energy available in Illinois?
According to the nuclear regulatory commission (NRC) there are at least 11 nuclear powered electrical generating plants. There are 4 facilities which have been shut down and are being decommissioned.
Is water vapor condensing on a glass exothermic or endothermic?

An example for nuclear?
Nuclear is a exothermic nuclear processes. This is also known as nuclear energy or power.
What is the function of an electrical reactor?
A nuclear reactor contains a nuclear reaction, provides support for the control mechanisms for the reaction, and provides for the transfer of heat to machinery that will use it to produce electric power.
Where does a space satellite get its source of electrical energy from?
Either solar energy, or some nuclear reaction.
