Question

Which of the following best compares a fission and fusion reaction?

Both reactions absorb energy, but in a fusion reaction an atomic nucleus splits into fragments, while a fission reaction involves two nuclei joining to form one larger nucleus.

Answer 1

are you sure you didn't leave an option out?

Answer 2

it was too many characters so one was deleted

Answer 3

this was the four one--- Both reactions release energy, but in a fission reaction an atomic nucleus splits into fragments, while a fusion reaction involves two nuclei joining to form one larger nucleus.

Answer 4

haha okay, i was gonna say they're all wrong..

Answer 5

They both release energy, in the sun fusion occurs (2 hydrogen atoms fuse into 1 helium nucleus), on earth nuclear reactors split heavy (atoms with a lot of protons and neutrons) into smaller ones.

fusion = putting together
fission = splitting apart

Answer 6

ohh so the fourth one is correct

Answer 7

yupp

Answer 8

thanks again lol
