FISSION: the splitting of the nucleus of an atom into nuclei of lighter atoms, accompanied by the release of energy. FUSION: the process that powers the sun and the stars. It is the reaction in which two atoms of hydrogen combine together, or fuse, to form an atom of helium. In the process, some of the mass of the hydrogen is converted into energy. As the carbon has a lesser atomic mass than the iron, it can release the energy by the process of FUSION.

FLUORESCENCE: The emission of light by a substance that has absorbed light or other electromagnetic radiation. It is a form of luminescence. PHOSPHORESCENCE: the emission of radiation in a similar manner to fluorescence but on a longer timescale, so that emission continues after excitation ceases. When these fabrics are exposed to sunlight, the UV light excites the atoms present there that reemit white light, and so these fabrics look more bright.

When it encounters the slits, it passes through and divides into two wave fronts.

12.) Why is a larger nucleus generally less stable than a smaller nucleus?
