14.4 Nuclear Energy FIGURE 16: Structure of the atom.
Energy Energy- the capacity to do work –Work- force through a distance Joule- amount of work done –4 Joules = 1 calorie –Calorie- energy to heat 1 g of.
Nuclear Energy nmnmost striking development in sources of power in recent years. nRnRelease of the atom.
Nuclear Power. How does it work? Uranium-235 is often use to fuel nuclear power plants. It has an interesting property that makes it useful for this because.
Nuclear Energy. Fission vs. Fusion Fuse small atoms 2H 2 He NO Radioactive waste Very High Temperatures ~5,000,000 o C (SUN) Split large atoms U-235 Radioactive.

Unit 2 – The Atom Nuclear Chemistry Fusion and Fission.
Electricity production Generally (except for solar cells) a turbine is turned, which turns a generator, which makes electricity.
Nuclear power comes from fission or fusion reactions of atoms that are released in huge amounts of energy used to produce electricity.
