Question

how is fusion different from a simple chemical reaction? (1 point) energy is released in a fusion reaction, but it is absorbed in a chemical reaction. the atoms are bound to each other by electrons in a fusion reaction. atoms come together in a chemical reaction, but they are split in a fusion reaction. the nuclei combine in a fusion reaction.

Explanation:

In a fusion reaction, atomic nuclei combine, releasing a large - amount of energy. In a chemical reaction, atoms combine or rearrange through electron - based bonding, and energy changes are generally much smaller. Energy is released in fusion but can be absorbed or released in chemical reactions. Atoms are not split in fusion, and they are bound by electrons in chemical reactions, not in fusion.

Answer:

Energy is released in a fusion reaction, but it is absorbed in a chemical reaction.
