Question

differentiate between nuclear fission and nuclear fusion

Answer 1

Nuclear fission:
1) Fission is the splitting of a large atom into two or more smaller ones.
2) Fission reaction does not normally occur in nature.
3) The energy released by fission is a million times greater than that released in chemical reactions, but lower than the energy released by nuclear fusion.

Nuclear fusion:
1) Fusion is the fusing of two or more lighter atoms into a larger one.
2) Fusion occurs in stars, such as the sun.
3) The energy released by fusion is three to four times greater than the energy released by fission.

2. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy.
