Yes. Nuns take four vows. Obidience, Poverty and Chastity and then a fourth depending on the type of nun she is. Example, The Poor Clair Nuns take an extra vow to help those in need, while another sect of nuns (can't remember which ones) who use television as a way to get out to the people take a vow to spread the word of God. So, yes, having sex is a sin for a nun.

It is a sin for anyone to have sex outside of marriage. Since nuns do not marry, it would follow that it would be a sin for one to have sex.

Yes.
Judeo-Christian tradition has taught for thousands of years:
1. Single people should be celibate.
2. Married people should be faithful to each other (adultery is wrong).
The Catholic Church recognizes the power of sex when it teaches, "Sexuality affects all aspects of the human person in the unity of his body and soul."
Fornication, sex between an unmarried man and an unmarried woman, is contrary to their human dignity and the dignity of human sexuality.
Chastity means the successful integration of sexuality within the person. A chaste person's body and spirit lives in unity and opposes any behavior that would impair that unity.
The purpose of sex is to bring a husband and wife closer and to create human life.
Priests and religious sisters (nuns) take vows of chastity. Breaking these voluntary solemn vows to God would make the sin worse.
With love in Christ.

I am not a nun I am a preacher! BUT... They make a covenant to GOD not to have sex! He would not consider it a sin to have sex if you are married! They make the choice not too!

Some nuns are allowed to get married {usually to priests of the same sect/church}
The majority are not.
Adultry is a sin to believers irrespective of vocation.

Would it be classed as adultry, you should have said is it a sin for a nun to have a rampant rabbit, or a black mambo or one shaped like a cross (a buzzing cross mmm i think i'll patent that idea)

Yes, when she becomes a nun she takes three vows: Poverty, Chastity, and Obediance. Breaking a promise to God is not to be taken lightly.
