Splitting from an atom is called what?
Splitting an atom is called nuclear fission. This process releases a large amount of energy and is the principle behind nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
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.
Why does splitting the atom create a nuclear explosion?
Splitting an atom (fission) releases energy and more than one neutron. If there is a nearby atom, the neutron can cause the atom to split, releasing more neutrons. The "chain reaction" proceeds exponentially. At each split more energy is released. Eventually the energy is sufficient to wipe out whole cities: an explosion.
Fission is the splitting of an .?
Atom.
The splitting of the nucleus of a large atom into two or more smaller nuclei occurs during what nuclear?
The splitting of the nucleus of a large atom into two or more smaller nuclei is called nuclear fission. This process releases a large amount of energy and is the principle behind nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
What is the process of splitting an atom called?
The process of splitting an atom is called nuclear fission. This is when the nucleus of an atom is split into two or more smaller nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. Nuclear fission is the process that powers nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons.
Whats the nuclear reaction of fission?

The splitting of an atom's nucleus into two smaller nuclei is called?
The splitting of an atomic nucleus into smaller nuclei is called nuclear fission.
Why is fission called nuclear?
The process of nuclear fission involves splitting the nucleus of an atom into two smaller nuclei.
How it's called the splitting of the atom?
Nuclear fission
What is the process which describes the splitting of a large unstable atom into two intermediate size atoms and extra neutrons called?
Nuclear fission
The process in which each split atom gives up neutrons is called?
The splitting of atoms and the release of neutrons describes nuclear fission.
Is the atom bomb a atom?
No, it is called an atom bomb because it derives its power from splitting uranium and/or plutonium atoms.
What is called splitting the nucleus of an atom to release energy?
Nuclear fission
The process by which describe the splitting of a large unstable atom into two intermediate size atoms and extra neutrons is called?
