Answer:

Fission

Explanation:

Nuclear reactions are broadly classified into fission and fusion reactions.

In nuclear fusion two lighter nuclei combine to form a heavy nucleus along with the release of a large amount of energy.

In contrast, fission reactions involve splitting of a heavy unstable nucleus into lighter nuclei along with the release of energy. Nuclear reactors work on the principle of nuclear fission which involves the breakdown of U-235 nucleus via the following equation:

₉₂U²³⁵ + ₀n¹  →   ₅₆Ba¹⁴¹ + ₃₆Kr⁹² + 3₀n¹ + 200 MeV energy

The energy generated in nuclear power plants currently serve as a source of clean energy relative to that generated from coal powered plants. Therefore, as of right now energy from nuclear fission is the most feasible for human use.

As of now, the nuclear fission is the most feasible energy source for human use. All the nuclear power plants are based on the controlled nuclear fission reaction, where the unstable nucleus is bombarded with high speed neutrons, thus, splitting the nucleus into stable ones and releasing huge amount of energy. The nuclear fusion requires very high temperature, the temperature equal's to that of the sun. Hence, it is not feasible right now. As the technology advances, we will see advancement in other form of energies.

Alex

Answer:

C. natural gas

Explanation:

Solar comes from the sun, which if it became nonrenewable, we would be dead. hydroelectric comes from water and Dams, which water is reproduced through rain. Biomass are things like leaves, which are seasonally reproduced.

If the heating curve is reversed, what describes the boiling point?
GalinKa [24]
Boiling is the process of converting a substance from liquid state to gaseous state. If the heating curve is reversed, the process also is reversed from converting gaseous state to liquid state. In this case, the reverse of boiling is condensation. So the answer is point of condensation.

What happens when you drop iodine on a leaf?
insens350 [35]
When you drop iodine on a leaf you may observe a colour change of orange/brown to a blue/black complex.

This is because in the leaf there are starch molecules that form a blue/black complex with the starch molecules.

hope that helps :)
