Atomic energy, also called Nuclear energy (since it is the nucleus, or core, of the atom that is split).
When the atoms are split, the nuclear energy is a result of what is called Nuclear Fission. When the atoms are merged, the nuclear energy is a result of what is called Nuclear Fusion.
What else can I help you with?
What is the process in which large atoms are broken apart?
The process in which large atoms are broken apart is called nuclear fission. This occurs when the nucleus of an atom splits into two or lighter nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy. Nuclear fission is used in nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
What chemical splits into carbon and oxygen atoms?
Both carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are made up of carbon and oxygen atoms only. Both are colorless, odorless gases.
What processes a molecule splits releasing neutrons and energy?
In nuclear fission it is the nucleus of the atom that splits, not a molecule, and this releases neutrons and energy. Reactions at the molecule level are termed chemical reactions, not nuclear, and these chemical reactions involve whole atoms and molecules.
What is the type of reaction that splits a triglyceride into it's component parts?
The type of reaction that splits a triglyceride into its component parts is called hydrolysis. In this reaction, water is used to break the ester bonds in the triglyceride, resulting in the formation of glycerol and fatty acids.
What type of atoms are shown in a skeletal model of an organic molecule?
These are atoms of carbon.
The word that describes what is a power source that splits atoms that contain large amounts of energy?
Nuclear reactor.
What are 3 alternative sources of energy?
Solar power Takes energy from phtons emmitted from the sun. Hydro power Takes power from currents of water turning a turbine. Nuclear power Splits atoms to release energy
How the atomic bomb got its name?
it splits atoms inside of it
What always splits when fission is around?
The nucleus of an atom always splits when fission occurs. Fission is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller nuclei.
What can split atoms in half?
A process called fission. Though it seldom splits then in equal proportions.
Can you break down atoms break them into little pieces?
Yes you can but only scientists know how to make it. It's called an atom bomb. It splits atoms.
Is there a net release of energy when an element splits?
Yes, this is the source of power in a nuclear power plant
What is the process in which large atoms are broken apart?
The process in which large atoms are broken apart is called nuclear fission. This occurs when the nucleus of an atom splits into two or lighter nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy. Nuclear fission is used in nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
What happens when an atom?
if the atoms will split the number of protons and neutrons will decreased because of their respective numbers of electrons used due tothe splits of the atoms. in this case it explodes
Do you need to be able to do the splits before you can stradle?
No, you do not have to know how to do the splits before you can straddle. People are different where some can do straddles before splits. It all depends on the body type and hips. For both splits and straddles though, it does help to have more flexible hamstrings. By working your hamstring flexibility, both your splits and straddles will improve.
What chemical splits into carbon and oxygen atoms?
Both carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are made up of carbon and oxygen atoms only. Both are colorless, odorless gases.
What type of atoms is in iron?
Iron atoms.
