A nuclear plant does not produce carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrous oxides, or other pollution emitted by burning hydrocarbons, so that is much less. Nuclear plants generally have a very good record in not emitting radioactive pollution, but we have seen that things can go disastrously wrong as at Chernobyl. The answer is to build only well designed plants with adequate safety equipment and to operate them carefully. Leaks of radioactivity are more likely when disposing of spent fuel than actually running the stations. When stations are decommissioned great care will be needed and the operations must be well controlled.
Radioactivity is the term defined as the emission of energy from subatomic particles.
Some common methods of producing electricity include burning fossil fuels like coal or natural gas, harnessing renewable sources such as wind or solar power, using nuclear reactions in nuclear power plants, and generating electricity through hydropower by harnessing the energy of flowing water. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages in terms of cost, environmental impact, and reliability.

The nuclear equation for positron emission of Ca-37 is: 37Ca -> 37K + e^+ + v + γ This reaction involves the emission of a positron (e^+), resulting in the conversion of a calcium-37 nucleus to a potassium-37 nucleus, along with a neutrino (v) and a gamma ray (γ).
The top five nuclear energy producing countries are the United States, France, China, Russia, and South Korea. These countries have significant nuclear power capacity and infrastructure in place to generate a large share of their electricity from nuclear sources.
fuision and fission.
Nuclear. The rest are mechanical.
No. They have none.
