FISSION and FUSION

Nuclear Fission The splitting of a more massive nucleus of an atom into 2 smaller nuclei, subatomic particles and energy (radiation)

Fission Massive nucleus 2 smaller nuclei Subatomic particles Energy

Fission Reaction: n + U  Kr + Ba + 3 n + energy 235 92 141 1 1 n + U  Kr + Ba + 3 n + energy 92 36 56 93 235 ___ 141 1 1 Kr n + U  ____ + Cs + 3 n + energy 36 92 ___ 56

Fission Chain Reaction

Nuclear Fission at Work – CANDU Reactors (Canadian Nuclear Reactors)

Fission Chain Reaction at work – the Atom Bomb (Originally made with Uranium or Plutonium)

Nuclear Fusion The joining (fusing) of 2 smaller, lower mass nuclei together, to make 1 more massive nucleus, and give off energy and subatomic particles too.

Fusion Small Atom Small Atom Massive Atom Massive Atom (unstable) Massive Atom Particles given off

Fusion Reaction of Hydrogen
