They are not similar, as fusion and fission involve changes to the nucleus whereas chemical energy involves the bonds between atoms

How are fission and fission similar?

Fusion and fission are similar in that they both reduce mass and thereby release binding energy.

In what ways are fission and fusion similar?

Fission and fusion are both nuclear reactions that release energy by altering the nucleus of an atom. Both processes involve the splitting or combining of atomic nuclei to release energy.


Outline on nuclear energy?

Definition: energy from nuclear fission or fusion: the energy released by nuclear fission or fusion


Is energy released during fission but absorbed during fusion?

Energy is released during fusion and fission.


Which process, fission or fusion, releases more energy?

Fusion releases more energy than fission.


What kind of energy is produced by both fission and fusion processes?

Nuclear energy is produced by both fission and fusion processes.


Fission and fusion are examples of what?

Nuclear processes that can release large amounts of energy.


What item go from chemical energy to thermal energy?

Items do not go from one form of energy to another other than in thermonuclear fusion or fission.


Convert chemical energy into nuclear energy?

Chemical energy can be converted into nuclear energy through processes like nuclear fission or fusion. In nuclear fission, the nucleus of an atom is split into smaller parts, releasing a significant amount of energy. In nuclear fusion, nuclei are combined to form heavier nuclei, also releasing energy. These processes release a much larger amount of energy compared to chemical reactions.


How is the nuclear energy in use different from fusion energy?

Because it is a fission process, not fusion
