Fission reactions run out of control, while chemical reactions are controlled.
Protons cause fission reactions, while chemical reactions involve electrons.
• Atoms are split into smaller pieces during fission.
• Fission can happen with radioactive forms of atoms.

Fission is different from a simple chemical reaction because atoms are split into smaller pieces during fission, fission reactions can run out of control, and fission can happen with radioactive forms of atoms. In contrast, chemical reactions do not involve the splitting of atoms and are typically controlled processes.
