Which Part of cell responsible for releasing energy?
nucleus
Which energy releases smaller nuclei to form a larger nucleus?
You are thinking of nuclear fusion, where in the stars hydrogen forms into helium with energy release
Why do all photoelectrons not come with the same kinetic energy?
Some energy is lost in releasing the electrons from the nucleus. This energy is known as the work function, which relates to the threshold frequency. Therefore, the kinetic energy of the released photoelectron is equal to the photon energy minus the work function.
What uses nuclear energy?
Fission is a nuclear reaction where the nucleus of one atom splits into two smaller nucleus creating different elements with smaller atomic number and sometimes releasing free protons and neutrons. The process of Nuclear Fission creates a lot of energy using minimal material, hence it is a good source of electricity. Also, one of the most known yet dangerous use is the creation of nuclear bombs.
What is a neutron reaction?
You are probably referring to nuclear fission. this occurs in some isotopes of heavy elements, most notably Uranium 235 and Plutonium 239. The fission of the nucleus releases energy, and forms two fragments which are nuclei of two lighter elements. The reaction can be controlled to occur at a steady rate thus releasing a steady supply of thermal energy.
Which Part of cell responsible for releasing energy?
nucleus
At a constant pressure freezing occurs by what?
releasing energy
What is endoergic and exoergic?
Exoergic is energy-releasing. Endoergic occurs with an absorption of energy. Isoergic does not release or absorb energy.
What process of the water cycle occurs by releasing energy?
condensation that forms clouds
What stage of respiration that release most of the energy in the glucose occurs in the?
It is Nucleus
What are examples of artificial radioactivity?
The bombardment of U-235 isotope with a nucleus, releasing tremendous amount of energy.
Do the nucleus capture the sun's energy?
No it is not nucleus. It is the chloroplast
What is solar energy created from?
Nuclear fusion. Hydrogen Nuclei fuse to form a Helium Nucleus in the core of stars like our Sun, thereby releasing large amounts of energy.
What type of chemical reaction occurs spontaneously?
An energy-absorbing reaction occurs spontaneously, as opposed to an energy-releasing reaction, which starts off slowly.
What is the main features of mitochondria?
mitochondria is power house of a cell as energy releasing process occurs in them they regulate ca ion concentration
What is a characteristic of a radioactive nucleus?
A radioactive atom is an atom of an element with an unstable nucleus.
Which energy releases smaller nuclei to form a larger nucleus?
You are thinking of nuclear fusion, where in the stars hydrogen forms into helium with energy release
