Nuclear Fission vs. Fusion What is what????. Fission…what is it? Nuclear reaction OR radioactive decay Nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts, neutrons.
For each atom, in its natural state, the number of electrons and the number of protons is equal. This number may or may not be the same as the number.

Fission vs. Fusion

Nuclear Fission Splitting an atom

Use the cartoon to write the fission reaction that occurs.

The atomic products of U-235 fission are not always the same If U-235 is bombarded by a neutron the products may also be Xe-143 and Sr-90 write this balanced reaction

Fusion Occurs at very high temperatures Large quantities of Nuclear E can be released when smaller nuclei are combined to form a larger heavier atom Occurs at very high temperatures releases 3-10x more E than fission Power of the sun and stars

H becomes He
