Can someone help, I am stuck and this is due in 3 days!! I will mark you brainliest. Nuclear Reactions Worksheet
Part One

The wastes from nuclear power plants are very toxic.

Nuclear power plants produce less air pollution than power plants that use fossil fuels.

Nuclear power plants are safe.

The benefits of nuclear power outweigh the risks.

Part Two
Design a diagram, sketch, or other models to show changes in the nucleus of an atom during nuclear fission and fusion. Include a short description and a way to compare the amounts of energy released in each event. Here is an example using alpha decay.

Example:
In alpha decay, the parent nucleus loses an alpha particle, which is two protons and two neutrons. The new nucleus is smaller than the original. Alpha particles have a high amount of kinetic energy and can damage skin and living tissue. But, they are easy to shield against and can be stopped by paper or fabric.

Fission:

Fusion:
