A chain reaction results when a uranium atom is struck by a/an ______________released by a nearby Uranium atom undergoing fission.

A. Electron

B. Neutron

C. Gamma ray

D. Proton

Respuesta :

Answer:

Chain reaction is possible by neutron

Explanation:

Nuclear reaction is mainly two types,

⇒ Nuclear Fission : heavy atom split into two light atom.

Ex. Uranium, thorium

⇒ Nuclear fusion : lighter atom combine together

Ex. Hydrogen to helium

In fusion reaction the large amount of energy is produced as compare to fission reaction.

Sun gets brighter by fusion reaction.

In case of uranium fission reaction is possible by colliding neutron.
