Question

Atomic and nuclear energy same?

Answer 1

HLO FREIND ✌️✌️✌️

That's where “atomic power” comes from. It may have been a term invented by the press, or politicians (“Atoms for Peace”) as a result of an early misunderstanding or over-somplification in a briefing. I don't know, exactly.

But an atom has two parts…the nucleus, and a cloud (shells) of electrons buzzing around outside the atom's nucleus. “Atomic” bombs, nuclear bombs, nuclear reactors fusion bombs, fission bombs….these all produce power by actions in the nucleus of the atom ( or of multiple atoms). Hence “nuclear”.

Chemical reactions are about making and


breaking of bonds between atoms due to presence or absence of electrons in different atoms' electron shells . Since the electrons are part of atoms, chemical reactions are technically atomic reactions.

In an effort to be more precise, scientists and engineers in the field now talk about “nuclear weapons” and nuclear power plants”, and not “atomic”, thereby distuguishing Chemical reactions and Nuclear reactions.
