What is the reason for an uncontrolled fission reation ending in an explosion? |
|
Answer» Nuclear fission is the process in which the nuclei of greater atomic mass are split into lighter nuclei using neutrons. The mass of nucleus produced in such a process is less than of its parent nuclei. Thus there will be loss of matter in fission process. The mass lost during fission converts into energy. The two or three neutrons produced during the process, bombards with other nucleus and fission process continue rapidly and ends in big explosion. |
