when any nucleus is bombarded to the particle then there is a formation of unstable nucleus for a very short time and the formation of final or stable product depends upon the energy of intermediate compound nucleus.

for example:

Al(A=13,Z=27) + H(A=1,Z=1) ----> Si(A=14,Z=28)

target nucleus bombarded particle unstable

intermediet compound nucleus

Si ----->Si(a=14,Z=27)+n(z=1) stable product

What do subatomic particles do during a nuclear reaction?

Subatomic particles such as protons and neutrons interact with each other during a nuclear reaction. They may be released, absorbed, or rearranged to form new elements. These interactions can result in the release of energy and the creation of different isotopes.


How much energy does a nuclear reaction give off?

It depends on how much you are reacting, what element it is, and how quickly it reacts. But in all cases E=mc^2 Meaning that the energy (in Joules) released is equal to the mass lost (in kg) multiplied by the speed of light (300 000 000 m/s) squared.


Is China a Nuclear free zone?

China is not a nuclear free zone. They have many nuclear weapons. Though China has a nuclear policy which states that they are not allowed to produce,fire, or give away these weapons.


In what form is the energy released in this reaction?

In an exothermic reaction heat energy is released.


How mass can be converted into energy. give examples?

Mass can not be converted into energy. This is a common misconception. The example usually given is nuclear reactions. Note that this is no different from a chemical reaction, except that the energies involved (as well as the mass deficit, see below) are much greater in a nuclear reaction.Assume that hydrogen is fused into helium, in the Sun. Some would say that "mass is converted into energy". This is not true. The mass deficit (see: "mass deficit" article in Wikipedia for more details) means that the helium has less mass than the hydrogen. However, any energy leaving the place of the reaction - for example, light leaving the Sun - also has mass! If the energy stays there, say as heat, it contributes to the total mass! Thus, total mass is conserved.As to the energy, the light that leave the Sun has a certain energy. This energy is available before the reaction, as nuclear energy; a type of potential energy. Thus, total energy is also conserved.Since both mass and energy are conserved, there is no mass-to-energy conversion. The same happens for other nuclear reactions, or any reaction for that matter. Both mass and energy are always conserved.

What is the same with nuclear fission and nuclear fusion?

They are quite different, it's hard to think of anything the same. Different fuel, different conditions to make the fuel give energy. Both types of reaction give out neutrons, so that is one thing the same.


Is the nuclear reaction that takes place in a nuclear electrical generating plant exothermic?

I would imagine it is since the goal of an electric plant is to give off energy, and exothermic reactions release entergy. Both fusion and fission, the two major nuclear reactions, are exothermic.


Which type of nuclear reaction is used in modern-day nuclear reactors?

Nuclear fission is used in nuclear weapons to create what some might call an atomic blast (nuclear blast). Nuclear fission used this way can also be applied in special complex designs to generate enough thermal energy (heat) to initiate a fusion reaction. This creates an even bigger nuclear blast.


Describe how nuclear fusion generates the suns energy?

In the sun, nuclear fusion occurs when hydrogen atoms combine to form helium. This process releases a large amount of energy in the form of light and heat. The immense pressure and temperature at the sun's core enable this fusion reaction to occur, sustaining the sun's energy output.
