Question

what is a nuclear fission reaction? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

nuclear fission reaction is the process of shooting a neutron at a uranium nucleus or plutonium nucleus, this releases energy.

Explanation:

Nuclear fission takes place in a nuclear power station and when the neutrons hit the larger nucleus it is absorbed and causes the larger nucleus to split and form two daughter nuclei and two or three neutrons plus energy. This process continues until there is enough energy to be harnessed to be converted into electrical energy.
