Question

What is a problem commonly associated with nuclear power facilities? 

  1. A small quantity of energy is produced. 
  2. Reaction products contribute to acid rain 
  3. It is impossible to control nuclear fission
  4. It is difficult to dispose the nuclear wastes. 

hintHint:

The disposal of nuclear waste is the main problem associated with nuclear power facilities.

The correct answer is: It is difficult to dispose the nuclear wastes. 


    • Nuclear power facilities provide a high source of strong energy.
    • The fission of the nuclear atoms produces nuclear power and is easy to initiate and control.
    • The main difficulty in nuclear power facilities is, it is difficult to dispose of hazardous nuclear wastes.
