Learning Goal for this section:<br />

Explain and compare nuclear reactions (Radioactive decay, fission, and fusion), the energy changes associated with them<br />

and their associated safety issues.<br />

Notes Section:<br />

Decay changes the element, you don't lose anything.<br />

Nuclar Fusion requires high energy, and pressure.<br />

Deterium= when hydrogen gets an electron.<br />

ion= charged particle<br />

Tritium= 2 neutrons<br />

Fusion= to come together<br />

Fission= to go apart<br />

After 10 half lives take place, the mass is so little that it is considered to be gone.<br />

The smaller the starting<br />

size, the less time it will<br />

take the entire sample<br />

to decay.<br />
