Question

Why do nuclear power plants use fission rather than fusion to generate

Answer 1

Answer:

Fusion requires very high pressure and temperature, as the other person said

Explanation:

Answer 2

B. Fusion requires very high pressure and temperature.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is the combination of atomic nuclei into larger ones with the release of a large amount of energy.

Nuclear fission is the decay process in which a heavy nuclide is bombarded with with neutrons.

• Both processes release a huge amount of energy.
• But fusion produces far more energy.
• The reason why nuclear fusion is not in use is because of the high pressure and temperature needed start it.
• The activation energy is high and the energy barrier is very great.
• Only the core of the sun naturally favors fusion
