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.


Which process uses bacteria to copy DNA?

Polymerase chain reaction


When many Atoms are split in a chain reaction a large explosion occurs this is a example of what type of energy conversion?

Your question has 2 parts:Assuming that 1 neutron starts the chain reaction, each generation takes 10ns, each fission produces 2.5 neutrons on average, and the chain reaction lasts 1us; the total fissions = 100000Nuclear energy to kinetic energy to heat energy.


An ongoing series of fission reactions is called a (n) .?

Fission and fusion reactions are chain reactions but in different ways. In fission reaction a heavy nuclei is bombarded with a slow moving neutron and this nuclei breaks to produce more such neurons along with generation of new elements. These slow moving neutrons are further used to carry out fission of more such nuclei. This is chain reaction. Fusion reaction are a different class of nuclear reaction in which small nuclei fuse together to produce bigger nuclei along with the generation of energy due to mass defect.. In fusion reaction lot of energy is produced and this energy is used to carry out further reaction. Thus both can be called series reaction.


What emitted particles maintain a nuclear chain reaction?

In most cases neutrons are emitted and capable of maintaining a nuclear chain reaction

What starts the nuclear chain reaction in a nuclear reactor?

The nuclear chain reaction in a nuclear reactor is started by the splitting of uranium atoms, a process known as nuclear fission.


What reaction keeps going on its own once it starts?

A chain reaction is a type of reaction that keeps going on its own once it starts due to the products of the reaction continuing to fuel the reaction. Nuclear fission reactions in nuclear power plants and explosions are examples of chain reactions that continue on their own once initiated.

What was the Production Budget for Chain Reaction?

The Production Budget for Chain Reaction was $55,000,000.


What is a 'chain link' in Yu-Gi-Oh?

A chain link is an activated effect. If you activate something, it starts a chain, and will be chain link 1. A spell speed 2 or 3 effect can be chained to this, becoming chain link 2, and so on.
