Which of the following is the term for when enough nuclear fuel is present to support a nuclear chain reaction that consumes all the fuel? Select one:a.critical mass b.dopingc.bombardmentd.saturation

Respuesta :

Let me explain every term given in the options.

critical mass - the minimum amount of a given fissile material necessary to achieve a self-sustaining fission chain reaction under stated conditions.

doping- In semiconductor production, doping is the intentional introduction of impurities into an intrinsic semiconductor for the purpose of modulating its electrical, optical and structural properties.

bombardment-nuclear reaction, change in the identity or characteristics of an atomic nucleus, induced by bombarding it with an energetic particle. The bombarding particle may be an alpha particle, a gamma-ray photon, a neutron, a proton, or a heavy ion.

saturation- Saturation means holding as much moisture as possible.
