Detailed explanation-1: -Fusion occurs when two atoms slam together to form a heavier atom, like when two hydrogen atoms fuse to form one helium atom. This is the same process that powers the sun and creates huge amounts of energy-several times greater than fission. It also doesn’t produce highly radioactive fission products.
Detailed explanation-2: -Abundant energy: Fusing atoms together in a controlled way releases nearly four million times more energy than a chemical reaction such as the burning of coal, oil or gas and four times as much as nuclear fission reactions (at equal mass).
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: Answer: It occurs with very small atoms with low mass. Explanation: Nuclear fusion is the process in which lighter nuclei fuse together and produce a heavier nucleus.
Detailed explanation-4: -The energy released by fusion is three to four times greater than the energy released by fission. Nuclear weapon: One class of nuclear weapon is a fission bomb, also known as an atomic bomb or atom bomb. One class of nuclear weapon is the hydrogen bomb, which uses a fission reaction to “trigger” a fusion reaction.
Detailed explanation-5: -In principle, nuclear fusion can produce much more energy than fission, but very high kinetic energy is required to overcome electrostatic repulsions between the positively charged nuclei and initiate the fusion reaction.
