Electron
Neutron
Proton
Deutron
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: B. Neutron
Nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller nuclei. The fission process often releases a large amount of energy.
Nuclear fission can be caused by the impact of a neutron. When a neutron hits the nucleus of an atom, it can cause the nucleus to split into two smaller nuclei. This process is called fission.
The fission process releases a large amount of energy. This energy can be used to generate electricity or to create nuclear weapons.
The other options are incorrect.
- Option A: Electrons are not heavy enough to cause nuclear fission.
- Option C: Protons are positively charged, and they would repel each other if they were to hit the nucleus of an atom.
- Option D: Deutrons are a type of neutron that is made up of one proton and one neutron. They are not heavy enough to cause nuclear fission.
