Nuclear fission is a process which involves the conversion of a heavier nuclei into two or more small and stable nuclei along with the release of energy.

$_{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_0^1\textrm{n}\rightarrow _{56}^{143}Ba+_{36}^{90}Kr+3_0^1\textrm{n}$

Nuclear fusion is a process which involves the conversion of two small nuclei to form a heavy nuclei along with release of energy.

Example: $_1^2\textrm{H}+_1^3\textrm{H}\rightarrow _2^4\textrm{He}+_0^1\textrm{n}+\text{energy}$

Thus when deuterium and tritium , the two isotopes of hydrogen are fused, a heavier nuclei helium is being formed from two smaller nuclei releasing a neutron.

Which of the following [H+] values describes the most basic (alkaline) solution?

Aleks04 [339]

The H+ concentration that would best describe a basic solution would be the one having values less than 10^-7. The pH of a solution is related to H+ concentration by pH = -log[H+]. Therefore, as the concentration of H+ decreases the alkalinity would rise.
