Differentiate between nuclear fusion and nuclear fission.

Solution:

Nuclear fusion	Nuclear fission
(1) The reaction is possible only at a very high temperature $( \approx 10^{7} \, \mathrm{K} )$ and a very high pressure.	This reaction is possible at ordinary temperature and ordinary pressure.
(2) Fusion reaction cannot be controlled.	Fission process can be controlled.
