How is a nuclear fission reaction controlled in nuclear reactor?
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.

Nuclear Reactions involve what part of the atom?
Nuclear reactions involve the nucleus of the atom, which contains protons and neutrons. During these reactions, changes in the nucleus, such as fusion or fission, release large amounts of energy.
Are there any non examples of radioactive decay?
Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are processes that involve nuclear reactions but are not examples of radioactive decay. Chemical reactions, such as burning wood, do not involve nuclear processes and are also not examples of radioactive decay.
A nuclear fission process in which neutrons produced by fission trigger more fissions?
nuclear chain reactionNote: there are also chemical chain reactions (e.g. polymerization), of course they involve no neutrons

Reaction that involves a change in the nucleus?
Nuclear reactions involve changes in the nucleus of an atom, such as nuclear fission (splitting of a nucleus) and nuclear fusion (combining of nuclei). These reactions release large amounts of energy and are the basis for nuclear power and weapons. The products of these reactions can be different elements and isotopes.
What kinda of nuclear reaction is seen in?
Nuclear fission reactions involve the splitting of atomic nuclei to release energy, while nuclear fusion reactions involve combining atomic nuclei to release energy. Both types of reactions are seen in nuclear power plants and stars.

What is true about all nuclear reactions?
All nuclear reactions involve changes in the structure of atomic nuclei, which can result in the release of a large amount of energy. These reactions are governed by the principles of conservation of mass and conservation of energy. Additionally, nuclear reactions can involve the splitting (fission) or combining (fusion) of atomic nuclei.
What type of nuclear reaction releases energy through the combination of atomic nuclei, unlike fission reactions which involve the splitting of atomic nuclei?
The type of nuclear reaction that releases energy through the combination of atomic nuclei is called fusion. This is different from fission reactions, which involve the splitting of atomic nuclei.
What are the type of nuclear reactions?
nuclear fission and nuclear fusion
What is the difference between the nuclear reactions taking place in the sun and the nuclear reactions taking place in a nuclear reactor?
The sun's nuclear reactions are fusion reactions at extremely high temperatures and pressures, while the nuclear reactor's nuclear reactions are fission reactions at typical temperatures and pressures for earth.
Does nuclear fusion produce much less energy per atom than nuclear fission?
In terms of energy per atom, nuclear fusion produces more energy than nuclear fission. Fusion reactions involve the combination of lighter atomic nuclei to form heavier nuclei, releasing large amounts of energy in the process. Fission reactions, on the other hand, involve the splitting of heavier atomic nuclei into smaller fragments, releasing energy.
