8) Nuclear reactions do not directly produce electrical energy. Explain the process that

is used to create electrical energy. Begin with the forms of energy produced by nuclear

reactions.

Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions that release nuclear energy to generate heat, which most frequently is then used in steam turbines to produce electricity in a nuclear power plant. Nuclear power can be obtained from nuclear fission, nuclear decay and Nuclear decay processes are used in niche applications such as radioisotope.
