When two similar atoms/nuclei bond together to make a new larger substance.

Question 6

What causes nuclear fusion naturally?

Answer 6

Sun and stars

Question 7

What was the first test to try to achieve nuclear fusion?

Answer 7

Ivy Mike. The Fusion Bomb tried to achieve fusion by causing multiple fission reactions.

Question 8

What is a nuclear chain reaction?

Answer 8

When a single neutron sets off a fission reaction, more neutrons are dispersed, each capable of another reaction.
