What term describes the reaction process in a fission reaction?
another name for nuclear fission is: E=MC squared
A nuclear reaction in which the nuclei of atoms join together is called fission true or false?
False. A nuclear reaction in which the nuclei of atoms join together is called fusion, not fission. Fusion is the process that powers the sun and hydrogen bombs. Fission, on the other hand, is when the nucleus of an atom is split into two or more smaller nuclei.
What is it called when neutrons released from a fission event cause other fission events in a continued self sustaining cascade?
This process is called a nuclear chain reaction. Neutrons released from one fission event trigger other fission events, creating a self-sustaining reaction that releases energy and more neutrons, continuing the chain reaction.
Fission and fusion is an example of what kind of energy?
One type of atom (element or isotope) is converted to another. This is called nuclear reaction.
The process which describes the splitting of a large unstable atom into two intermediate size atoms and extra neutrons is called?
The process which describes the splitting of a large unstable atom into two intermediate size atoms and extra neutrons is called nuclear fission. Nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction or a radioactive decay process.
What is it called when nuclear fission is repeated?
It is called nuclear chain fission reaction.
What is the nuclear reaction called when atoms split?
The nuclear reaction when atoms split is called fission. Fission is where atoms split into smaller particles or atoms.
What is splitting of atomic nuclei?
Splitting of atomic nuclei, also known as nuclear fission, is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom is split into smaller parts. This process releases a significant amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. Nuclear fission is used in nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
How is a nuclear fission reaction controlled in a nuclear reaction?
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.
How is hydrogen changed into helium in nuclear fission?
Hydrogen is not changed into helium in nuclear fission. In nuclear physics, nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more lighter atomic nuclei are forced together and are fused into a heavier nucleus. In the case of the formation of hydrogen into helium, our sun does that in what is called the proton-proton reaction.
What term describes the reaction process in a fission reaction?
another name for nuclear fission is: E=MC squared
The process in which each split atom gives up neutrons?
The act of an atom splitting is called nuclear fission. In nuclear fission where we see neutrons emerge with fission fragments, and we then see those neutrons initiate other fission reactions is called a nuclear fission chain reaction.
What is the hydrogen to helium reaction that is occurring inside the sun called?
nuclear fission
The splitting of nuclei of atoms is called .?
The splitting of nuclei of atoms is called nuclear fission. This process is categorized as either a nuclear reaction or a radioactive decay reaction.
How is a nuclear fission reaction controlled in nuclear reactor?
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.
When a uranium nucleus breaks up into fragments which type of nuclear reaction occurs?
The nuclear reaction that occurs when a uranium nucleus breaks up into fragments is called nuclear fission. It releases a large amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation.
What is the splitting of an atoms nucleus into two smaller nuclei is called?
nuclear fission
