Hello,

Can soeone tell me if I have the correct answer?
Thank You,

My answer- A

In a nuclear reaction energy is released by the combination of two elements into a new element. This process is an example of-

A. Nuclear Fusion
B. Nuclear Fission

Yes, I agree.

In fusion, nuclei combine to form a heavier element. I suppose both starting nuclei could be the same element though.
In fission, particles bombarding the nucleus split it into two smaller atomic number nuclei.

Yes I agree to

The factor that affects how easily an electron can be removed from an atom is the

The factor that affects how easily an electron can be removed from an atom is the


A. surrounding atoms.
B. temperature of the environment.

C. structure of the atom.

D. size of the atom.

Hi,

To verify if your answer is correct, we would need to understand the concept being discussed in the question. In this case, the question is asking about the process in which energy is released by the combination of two elements into a new element.

Now, let's break down the options provided:

A. Nuclear Fusion: Nuclear fusion is a process in which two or more atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, resulting in the release of a large amount of energy. This process is the main source of energy for stars, including the Sun. However, it does not involve the combination of two elements into a new element. Instead, it involves the combination of atomic nuclei.

B. Nuclear Fission: Nuclear fission is a process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts, typically as a result of being bombarded with a neutron. This process also releases a significant amount of energy and is commonly utilized in nuclear power plants. However, it does not involve the combination of two elements into a new element either.

Based on the given options and the explanation above, it seems that neither A (Nuclear Fusion) nor B (Nuclear Fission) accurately describe the process you mentioned. Therefore, it is likely that your answer (A) is incorrect.

To find the correct answer, we need more information about the process you described, as it does not align with either nuclear fusion or nuclear fission.
