Uranium-235 is a radioactive isotope of uranium that can undergo nuclear fission, releasing a large amount of energy. It is used as fuel in nuclear reactors and as the primary material for making atomic bombs.
The process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two smaller nuclei, releasing a tremendous amount of energy.
Nuclear Reactor: A facility where controlled nuclear reactions take place to produce heat, which is then converted into electricity.
Enrichment: The process of increasing the concentration of Uranium-235 in natural uranium to make it suitable for use in nuclear reactors or weapons.
