The advantages of nuclear energy areas follows:
(a) Large amount of energy is produced per unit mass.
(b) It does not produce smoke. It is a clean energy.
(c) Fission of one atom of uranium produces 10 million times the energy released by burning of one atom of carbon.
(d) Fusion of four hydrogen atoms produces huge amount of energy approximately equal to 27 MeV.
