when two atom combine to form a single atom process is called fission on other hand if a single atom split in two it is called fusion. in nuclear reactor it is controlled reaction amount of energy generated is used for generation of electricity

1--Nuclear fission: In nuclear fission, an unstable atom splits into two or more smaller pieces that are more stable, and releases energy in the process. The fission process also releases extra neutrons, which can then split additional atoms, resulting in a chain reaction that releases a lot of energy.
2--These are the steps by which electricity is generated by nuclear power:
Uranium atoms split releasing energy so fuel becomes hot. ...
The steam turns the turbine.
The turbine turns a generator and electricity is produced.
The electricity goes to the transformers to produce the correct voltage.
