What happens to the superheated water leaving the reactor? A) it is pumped into a lake or river.

B) its heat energy is changed to mechanical energy.

C) it causes the turbine to turn.

D) it turns steam when realesed

D) it turns steam when released

Explanation:

In a nuclear reactor, the superheated water leaving turns to steam when released and it in turn is channeled to turn turbines in order to produce electricity.

A nuclear reaction is used to generate current through a series of processes. The reaction produces a significant amount of heat energy. This heat energy is used to superheat water and convert it to steam. The steam is then channeled to drive turbines whose mechanical rotation produces electricity.
