∙ 12y agoYes, fission reactions do occur on Earth, both in natural radioactive decay processes and in controlled nuclear reactor facilities. Fission reactions involve splitting atomic nuclei to release energy, and this process is utilized in nuclear power plants to generate electricity.

∙ 9y agoYes. Nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons both use nuclear fission.
No, a chain reaction is not possible in a substance that emits no neutrons when it undergoes fission. Neutrons are required to sustain a chain reaction by triggering the fission of other atoms in the substance. Without neutron production, the fission process cannot continue to release energy and sustain the chain reaction.
Fission products are the fragments resulting from the fission of heavy nuclids during nuclear fission process
Nuclear fission is the process commonly used in nuclear power plants today, while nuclear fusion is still being researched and developed as a potential future energy source.
The fission reaction must be possible.
The process of producing lighter nuclei from heavier nuclei is called nuclear fission. This process involves splitting the nucleus of an atom into lighter fragments, releasing a significant amount of energy in the process.
From the sun to the moon to the earth.

binary fission
The heat of Earth's core comes from a combination of residual heat of Earth's formation, the decay of radioactive isotopes, and possible fission of uranium at the planet's center.

Binary fission
Two causes are possible: - spontaneous fission of uranium - a reaction (n, gamma) of molybdenum

It is called nuclear fission as in this process the heavy nuclei are split into fragments (or fission products).
No, nuclear fission is not reversible energy. It is irreversible process.
Nuclear fission is a process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy. This process is used in nuclear power plants to produce electricity. It also plays a significant role in nuclear weapons, where fission reactions release energy explosively.
