- 7.17 understand that a nucleus of U-235 can be split (process of fission) by collision with a neutron, and that this process releases energy in the form of kinetic energy of the fission products
- 7.18 recall that the fission of U-235 produces two daughter nuclei and a small number of neutrons
- 7.19 understand that a chain reaction can be set up if the neutrons produced by one fission strike other U-235 nuclei
- 7.20 understand the role played by the control rods and moderator when the fission process is used as an energy source to generate electricity
