The subatomic particles of the Atom (neutrons, protons, electrons) are released at high velocity. Some of these particles can strike other atoms and cause them to break apart, releasing large amounts of energy; this is called nuclear fission (atoms fissioning into lighter atoms). A self-sustaining fission reaction where atoms break apart, and cause other atoms to break apart, can be created with many radioactive elements such as Plutonium or Uranium in an event called a Chain Reaction.
What else can I help you with?
What word would you use to describe the reaction water uses to break apart large molecules?
monomer reaction
What is the fewest number of catalase molecules needed to break down 10 molecules of hydrogen peroxide?
Each catalase molecule can break down one molecule of hydrogen peroxide. Therefore, at least 10 catalase molecules would be needed to break down 10 molecules of hydrogen peroxide.
What would happen if the temperature of liquids was reduced in motion of the molecules?
As the temperature is reduced, the motion of the molecules is also reduced.
What chemical reaction formed these large molecules what reaction would be needed to break these molecules?
Large molecules are formed through a variety of chemical reactions, such as polymerization or condensation reactions. To break these molecules down, typically a hydrolysis reaction is needed, where water is used to break the bonds holding the large molecules together.
What would happen to the iron filings if the magnets were slowly moved apart?
They would get mixed up and would become non-magnetic.
What word would you use to describe the reaction water uses to break apart large molecules?
monomer reaction
What would happen if you poured water on the Sun?
If water were poured on the Sun, it would almost instantly vaporize due to the Sun's extremely high temperatures. The water molecules would break apart into hydrogen and oxygen atoms, eventually being engulfed by the Sun's intense heat and gravity.
What would happen if rollercoster went 1000mph?
the roller coaster would crack and break apart because of the velocity. It is to much for a roller coaster to handle.
What would happen if glycolsis did not happen in a cell?
If glycolysis could not happen in a cell, the cell would not produce ATP molecules.
How would you break apart 21-8?
8
What happens when water molecules when heat is added to water molecules?
When heat is added to the water, the molecules move faster. When the water reaches the boiling point (100 Degree Celsius), the water molecules at the surface of the water would break apart with the other molecules and escape (evaporate). When they evaporate, the water molecules changes state and becomes water vapour.
What would happen if the wire straightened?
The ends would be further apart.
What would happen to your phone if water is in contact with it?
It would break.
What do molecular bonds dissolve in?
Molecular bonds don't "dissolve". But, an organic solvent can provide affinity to the molecules you wish to break apart from EACH OTHER...as molecules. Solvents don't break covalent bonds like that. For example, you can dissolve wax in oil, because the wax will DISPERSE within the oil..but the wax molecules will remain wax. If you break the covalent bonds...it would no longer remain wax. Catalysts can break bonds....or some type of replacement reaction of functional groups on a molecule. Okay?
What would happen when plates move together?
they break
What would happen if a camera fell off a building?
it would break
What would happen if a rocket ship fell apart in space?
the asrtonaught would die
