Question

Select all that apply.

Nuclear energy is released during _____.

chemical reactions

fission

radioactive decay

breakup of molecular bonds

induced splitting of atoms

Answer 1

I just did this and the answers are fission, radioactive decay, and induced splitting of atoms.

Answer 2

Answer;

-Fission;

-Radioactive decay

-Induced splitting of atoms.

Step-by-step explanation;

-Nuclear energy is energy in the nucleus (core) of an atom. Nuclear energy is released from atoms in two ways: nuclear fusion and nuclear fission.

- In nuclear fusion, energy is released when atoms are combined or fused together to form a larger atom. This is how the sun produces energy while in nuclear fission, atoms are split apart to form smaller atoms, releasing energy. Nuclear power plants use nuclear fission to produce electricity.
