What else can I help you with?
Fission and fusion are examples of what?
Nuclear processes that can release large amounts of energy.
Which provides more energy per gram of fuel fission or fusion?
Fusion provides more energy per gram of fuel than fission. Fusion reactions release several times more energy compared to fission reactions, making fusion a more efficient and powerful energy source.
What chemical reaction produces the sun and energy?
These are not chemical reactions but thermonuclear reactions.
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.

Example of heat energy?
sun, fire ,and stove are all examples of heat energy!For example heat released during chemical reactions, nuclear fission, nuclear fusion, etc.
What is the key difference between fission and fusion reactions in terms of energy release?
The key difference between fission and fusion reactions in terms of energy release is that fission reactions involve the splitting of heavy atomic nuclei, releasing energy, while fusion reactions involve the combining of light atomic nuclei, also releasing energy.
What are the type of nuclear reactions?
nuclear fission and nuclear fusion
What kind of reaction does oxygen undergo fusion or fission?
Oxygen undergoes fusion reactions in the cores of massive stars, where it can fuse into heavier elements. Oxygen does not undergo fission reactions naturally.
Can fission occur after fusion?
No, fission and fusion are two distinct nuclear reactions. Fusion involves the joining of atomic nuclei to release energy, while fission involves the splitting of atomic nuclei. They are not directly connected processes, so fusion does not lead to fission.
Fission and fusion are examples of what?
Nuclear processes that can release large amounts of energy.
How are fusion and fission similar to chemical energy?
Fusion and fission are both nuclear processes that release large amounts of energy by breaking or combining atomic nuclei, while chemical energy involves the breaking or forming of chemical bonds to release energy. All three processes involve converting mass into energy through different mechanisms.
Which provides more energy per gram of fuel fission or fusion?
Fusion provides more energy per gram of fuel than fission. Fusion reactions release several times more energy compared to fission reactions, making fusion a more efficient and powerful energy source.
Why is fusion preferred over fission?
Fusion is preferred over fission because it produces more energy with less radioactive waste and is less prone to accidents. Fusion reactions use isotopes of hydrogen, which are abundant and non-radioactive, as fuel. Additionally, fusion does not produce long-lived radioactive waste like fission reactions do.
Detonation of a fusion type hydrogen bomb is started by?
Detonation of a fusion hydrogen bomb is initiated by the primary fission bomb, which generates high temperatures and pressures needed to trigger fusion reactions in the hydrogen isotopes. The fission bomb compresses and heats the fusion fuel to the point where nuclear fusion reactions can occur, releasing vastly more energy than the fission reaction alone.
What can cause the chemical properties of a compound to change?
Fusion and fission
How do the products of a fusion differ from the products of a fission reaction?
One thing that makes fusion products different from fission products obviously is the fact that fusion products are heavier than the original two nuclei and fission products are lighter than the original nucleus
