Neither beta decay nor gamma decay is a form of nuclear fission. true or false

Answer 1

True. Neither beta decay nor gamma decay is a form of nuclear fission. Beta decay is a type of radioactive decay where a beta particle (electron or positron) is emitted from an atomic nucleus. Gamma decay, on the other hand, involves the emission of gamma rays, which are high-energy photons, from a nucleus. Nuclear fission, on the other hand, is the splitting of an atomic nucleus into smaller fragments, usually releasing several neutrons and a large amount of energy.
