Savion listed the steps involved when nuclear power plants generate electricity.

Nuclear reaction occurs.
Nuclear energy is converted to radiant and thermal energy.
Heat is used to generate steam.
Light and heat are released.
Steam turns turbines.
Mechanical energy is converted to electrical energy.
Which best explains how to correct Savion’s error?

In step 2, change “radiant and thermal ” to “chemical and mechanical.”
Reorder the steps so that step 4 appears before step 3.
Reorder the steps so that step 6 appears before step 5.
In step 6, change “mechanical” to “thermal.”

Answer:

Reorder the steps so that step 4 appears before step 3

Explanation:

In a nuclear power plant, we have;

1) Nuclear reaction between the radio active species and the particles takes place to generate energy in the nucleus of atoms

2) The nuclear energy in the atom is converted into radiant energy, which is the energy found in light, and thermal (heat) energy

3) The produced radiant and thermal energy is released as heat and light

4) With the produced heat, steam is generated

5) The generated steam turns the steam turbines and produced mechanical energy

6) The produced mechanical energy is then converted into electrical energy in the electrical generator of the power plant

To correct Savion's error, Step 4) the light and heat should be released before step 3) the released heat can be used to generate steam, we therefore reorder the steps so that step 4 appears before step 3.
