Answer:
The steps involved in generating electricity in a nuclear reactor are: (i) The controlled fission of uranium-235 in the nuclear reactor produces a lot of heat energy. (ii) Liquid sodium or C02 gas is pumped continuously through the pipes embedded in reactor. Sodium absorbs the heat energy produced in reactor.
