The energy provided when splitting or fusing an atom is binding energy - the energy that holds the atom together. When you change the configuration of the atom, you change the amount of binding energy required. Excess energy is released and we use it for other things, such as heating water and making steam. There is also a change in mass of the atom and its constituents, and that change in mass represents a change in energy. (Einstein: E = MC2)
What else can I help you with?
Who made the first use of quantum theory to explain the structure of atom?
Niels Bohr was the first to use quantum theory to explain the structure of the atom in his atomic model in 1913. He proposed that electrons orbit the nucleus at specific energy levels, or shells, and that energy is quantized in discrete amounts.
How are atomic nucleii and magnets similar?
because they connect to the sun as a atom and olso they both use energy from each other
What are the instructions for glass fusing?
The instructions to do glass fusing include melting glass at a high temperature to join and fuse glass together. One may need to use a glass kiln to successfully fuse glass.
How many energy levels are occupied in an atom of carbon?
You shouldn't use terms like "outer level", because they're confusing. It could potentially mean at least two things, specified more precisely below. The highest occupied energy level of a ground state neutral carbon atom, the 2p level, has two electrons. The number of electrons in a ground state neutral carbon atom that have a principal quantum number of 2 (the highest associated with any electrons in such an atom) is four.
How does hospital us nuclear fusion?
Hospitals do not use nuclear fusion. Nuclear fusion is a process that generates energy by fusing atomic nuclei together, while hospitals primarily use technologies like X-rays, MRI, and ultrasound for medical diagnosis and treatment. Nuclear fusion research is still in the experimental stage for energy production and is not yet implemented in hospital settings.
How do you use fusing in a sentence as a noun?
The fusing on this ball has separated.
What is the process to calculate the ionization energy of a hydrogen atom?
To calculate the ionization energy of a hydrogen atom, you can use the formula E -13.6/n2 electron volts, where n is the energy level of the electron being removed. The ionization energy is the amount of energy required to remove an electron from the hydrogen atom.
What is the special name we use when discussing the outer energy level of an atom?
This is the valence electrons shell.
How much energy produced in fission of an atom of uranium compair to an carbon atom?
The energy produced by fission of a uranium atom is millions of times greater than that produced by a carbon atom. Uranium fission releases a large amount of energy due to its high nuclear binding energy per nucleon, whereas carbon fission releases only a fraction of that energy. This difference in energy release is the basis for the use of uranium in nuclear power plants.
What does nuclear energy use to create its source of energy?
From the nuclear forces. An U-235 atom has a higher energy level than its daughter products; this is used in nuclear fission.
Do electronic use energy when they're off?
Not sure what you mean; being "on" or "off" is not one of the properties of electrons.Electrons can circle the atom indefinitely, without energy input.

Is it possible for electrons to orbit the nucleus with any possible energy?
No. Electrons will orbit around an atom only at specific energies (which change depending on the atom's atomic number and atomic mass). If you try to use a photon to change the energy of an electron and move it to another orbit path (or "energy level"), and the photon has the wrong energy in it, the electron won't change its orbit.
How do you excite electrons?
Electrons can be excited by absorbing energy, typically in the form of light or heat. This energy pushes the electrons to higher energy levels within an atom. Once the excitation energy is removed, the electrons can release it as light or heat when they return to their original energy state.
