Question

atoms contain subatomic particles called protons and neutrons. When these protons and neutrons split, a lot of energy is released. What kind of energy is this? nuclear radiant thermal chemical

Answer 1

Nuclear energy is released when protons and neutrons split. This process is also known as nuclear fission.

Answer 2

Answer;

Nuclear energy

Explanation;

• Atom are the smallest particles of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. Atoms contains sub-atomic particles namely, electrons, protons and neutrons. Electrons are found in the energy levels while protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of the atom.
• When protons and neutrons split, a lot of energy called nuclear energy is released. The splitting of these particles occurs in a process called nuclear fission, where atoms of a nuclide such as Uranium splits.
