Nuclear fission and electrical energy
Electrical energy currently produced by nuclear reactors is
derived from the decay of 235 92U, through a process known as
nuclear fission, whereby a slow-moving neutron is captured
by the 235 92U nucleus, creating 236 92U. The uranium nucleus 236
92U is very unstable, and it will immediately decay into two
lighter elements and release neutrons. Some of the neutrons will go
on to destabilize other nuclei, creating a chain reaction. During
fission reactions the...
