Im actually not sure about this one

Vocaloid:

|dw:1526764653743:dw| well judging by this chart, both positrons and electrons have 0 mass so neither A nor B would change the mass between C and D, between fusion and fission, which one do you think might make the mass number go down?

zarkam21:

fission because it splits into smaller

Vocaloid:

good so D is the better choice

Um A

Vocaloid:

I did a bit of poking around the web and it seems like the issue is temperature and pressure not the material itself which points us towards B

Vocaloid:

close but not quite, in the earlier problem we established some of the issues with fusion, currently we only use fission (B)

Vocaloid:

uh honestly kind of stumped on this one, I know that fusion produces less waste than fission, not sure how they both compare to radioactive decay

zarkam21:

its alright

Vocaloid:

if I have to hazard a guess, radioactive decay is much slower so i'd put it at the bottom, then fusion, then fission (B)

Okay Thanks!!! =)
