Answer:

They are both nuclear reactions that produce energy.

  • Fission is the splitting of heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei.
  • Fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together (this process releases a vast amount of energy)

Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy
