"atom" in inglés with examples - Collocation dictionary inglés
- The plutonium atom has an atomic weight of 239, that being the combined number of neutrons and protons in the atomic nucleus.
- The fission of one plutonium atom releases ten times more total energy than the fusion of one tritium atom.
- There in that tiny space the plutonium atoms would have their electrons stripped away, an instantaneous rape.
- The rocky material, he said, could aid the start of a chain reaction by slowing down speeding subatomic particles known as neutrons that fly out of plutonium atoms undergoing spontaneous decay.
- The nucleus of a hydrogen atom is a single proton, for example, while the nucleus of a plutonium atom contains 94 protons.
- When the new plutonium atom is hit again by a neutron, it splits and gives off energy.
- This process is the opposite of fission, the process that powers conventional nuclear reactors; fission involves breaking apart heavy nuclei, like those of plutonium atoms.
- The most common arrangement is for the so-called equatorial ligands to lie in a plane perpendicular to the O-Pu-O line and passing through the plutonium atom.
- Plutonium(III) fluoride has the LaF structure where the coordination around the plutonium atoms is complex and usually described as tri-capped trigonal prismatic.
- In a basic atom bomb, plutonium atoms are split, or fissioned, to release energy, but the fission can be promoted with a small amount of tritium because it has two extra atom-splitting neutrons.
