Question

Fission is the process of creating energy by

Answer 1

Answer: The separation of the components of the nucleous of the atom  

The nuclear fission consists of dividing a heavy nucleus into two or more lighter or smaller nuclei, by means of the bombardment with neutrons to make it unstable.

Then, with this division a great release of energy occurs and the emission of two or three neutrons, other particles and gamma rays.

It should be noted that in the process, the emitted neutrons can interact with new fissionable nuclei that will emit new neutrons and so on. Effect better known as chain reaction.
