History
100
This type of reaction occurs.
What is nuclear?
100
The atom does this to become smaller fragments.
What is splits?
100
The atom's nucleus is made of this.
What is protons and neutrons.
100
The date Nuclear Fission was discovered.
What is December 1938.
200
The type of nucleus in a Nuclear Fission.
What is a heavy nucleus?
200
The thing atoms split into.
What is fragments.
200
This keeps protons and neutrons intact.
What is Nuclear Binding Energy?
200
Their discovery revolutionized this.
What is nuclear physics?
300
The second way of a Nuclear Fission happens besides splitting spontaneously.
What is impacting?
300
The fragments weighs this after splitting.
What is half?
300
Nuclear Fission energy can be harnessed through this.
What is nuclear reactors?
300
The physicists learned about nuclear fission when they did something previously thought to be this.
What is impossible?
400

The thing released with a Nuclear Fission.

What is energy?

400
The fragments are half of this?
What is the original mass.
400
This type of reaction could occur and cause the process to repeat.
What is a chain reaction?
400
This nucleus split into two.
What is a Uranium Nucleus?
500

The thing a heavy nucleus impacts with for a Nuclear Fission to occur.

What is a particle?

500
The atom splits into this smaller fragments.
What is several?
500
This is created when a chain reaction occurs.
What is an additional fission.
500

The founders of Nuclear Fission.
