Answer:

1. TRUE, For exemple, radionuclide decayment is used to heat up water to power turbine generators, in this process the energy comes from the transformation of mass into energy.

2. TRUE, Fission is clean because there is no radionuclide envolved: in this process Hydrogen is trasformed into Helium

3. TRUE, Rapid uncontrolled reaction is a chemical term for explosion.
