What is produced when two or more nuclei join together or when the nucleus or one atom split apart?
nuclear fusion
What else can I help you with?
Radioactivity is produced when unstable nuclei .?
Break apart
Without the strong force the nuclei of atoms would?
Without the strong force, the nuclei of atoms would not be able to hold together. The strong force is responsible for binding protons and neutrons in the nucleus, preventing them from flying apart due to the electromagnetic repulsion of positively charged protons.
Is spontaneous fusion a form of radioactive decay?
No, the fusion process is the opposite of the radioactive decay process. Fusion is the merging together of nuclei to form a heavier nucleus whereas fission or radioactive decay is the splitting apart of a heavy nucleus into lighter daughter nuclei.
What is an easy description for fission?
In nuclear fission, a very large nucleus such as a uranium nucleus breaks apart into two smaller nuclei, and some energy is released as a result. If you can get a whole lot of heavy nuclei to undergo fission at the same time, the result is an atomic bomb.
Which describes he forces in an unstable nucleus?
On the contrary, the main force in the nucleus keeps particles together. This is called the strong nuclear force, and it keeps similarly charged protons together, overcoming the electrostatic repulsion that would push them apart. If there was a strong force pushing particles apart, elements could not exist except hydrogen! You may possibly be thinking of radioactive decay, for example beta particles being ejected. This is due to a proton losing mass and becoming a neutron, the loss of mass transforming to energy and the balance of charge giving a negative particle.
What is produced when two or more nuclei join together or when the nucleus of one atom splits apart?
nuclear fusion
Produced when two or more nuclei join together or when the nucleus of one atoms splits apart?
Nuclear Energy
Produced when two or more nuclei join together or when te nucleus of one atom splits apart?
In both cases energy is released through annihilation of mass
Radioactivity is produced when unstable nuclei .?
Break apart
Why don't atoms blast apart when like charges repel?
The nuclei of atoms are held together by the nuclear force. The neutrons in the nucleus assist this force.
Forces that may cause the nuclei of an atom to break apart are?
Forces that may cause the nuclei of an atom to break apart include strong repulsive forces between protons due to their positive charges, insufficient binding energy to hold the nucleus together, and external collisions with high-energy particles. These forces can lead to nuclear fission, where a heavy nucleus splits into smaller nuclei.
Without the strong force the nuclei of atoms would?
Without the strong force, the nuclei of atoms would not be able to hold together. The strong force is responsible for binding protons and neutrons in the nucleus, preventing them from flying apart due to the electromagnetic repulsion of positively charged protons.
Why do super heavy elements tend to break apart within a second?
The strong nuclear force, which holds atomic nuclei together, is an extremely short range force. It is stronger in the smaller nuclei, and it begins to fail as the nucleus gets too large. There is also a force of repulsion within a nucleus, which is the repulsion that protons exert on other protons because they have the same electrical charge, and this force is a longer range type of force than the strong nuclear force, so it will eventually tear the nucleus apart if the nucleus gets too large.
Is spontaneous fusion a form of radioactive decay?
No, the fusion process is the opposite of the radioactive decay process. Fusion is the merging together of nuclei to form a heavier nucleus whereas fission or radioactive decay is the splitting apart of a heavy nucleus into lighter daughter nuclei.

Which organelles contain DNA?
The nucleus and mitochondria are organelles that contain DNA. The nucleus contains the majority of the cell's DNA, while mitochondria have their own independent DNA apart from the cell's nuclear DNA.
How are fusion and fission different?
Fusion is the joining of particles to make stuff. Fission such as nuclear fission is 2 atoms smashing together such as Uranium 234, it gets smashed apart and more atoms are produced this happens billions of times to create very high amounts of energy.
