The correct answer would be D: Physical properties can be observed without changing the identity of a substance
Both create energy. Both require atoms.
Fission is ripping the atoms apart, fusion is forcing them together. Fission takes less energy because it's easier to rip unstable atoms apart but pushing two atoms that have similar charges together is extremely hard. Fission is currently mainstream on earth, but fusion is known for taking place within stars.
Answer:
If one of the reactants is a solid, only the particles at the surface can partake in the reaction. Breaking the reactant into smaller pieces increases the surface and more particles are exposed to the reaction mixture. This results in an increased frequency of collisions and therefore a faster rate of reaction
There can only be two electrons in the innermost shell of an atom so b is the correct answer
