Can you convert matter into energry?
Sort of. That's a common explanation for what happens in a nuclear reaction. But technically, both matter and energy are conserved - there is no more or less matter after the reaction, than before the reaction. Therefore, in such cases there is no matter-to-energy conversion. Read the Wikipedia article on "Mass deficit" or "Binding energy" for a more detailed explanation. There's no sort of about it. The meaning of Einstein's equation (E = mc2) is that matter and energy are interconvertible, and this happens all the time. What is conserved is mass-energy. Mass and energy are not conserved separately.
Nuclear reaction produce huge amounts of energy by transforming tiny amounts of matter True or false?
It is true that nuclear reaction produce huge amounts of energy by transforming tiny amounts of matter.
Do nuclear reactions produce huge amounts of energy by transforming tiny amounts of matter?
Yes, it is actually annihilation of matter that produces the energy in nuclear fission, which is the reaction that powers power plants
What produces the large amount of energy released by the nuclear reaction?
A change from one form of matter to another, with the release of large amounts of energy.
What does a nuclear bomb contain?
Nuclear matter! including mostly of uranium, used to create neuclear fusion, a advanced chamical reaction that putes out a lot of energy

Nuclear reactions such as fusion and fission convert?
Nuclear reactions convert very small amounts of matter into significant amounts of energy.

What is the process that A star turns matter into energy?
A nuclear reaction - either fusion or fission - is required to turn matter into energy.
What produces the large amount of energy released by the nuclear reaction?
A change from one form of matter to another, with the release of large amounts of energy.
How does Einstein equation show that very little matter is needed by the sun to generate energy?
It doesn't really. The equation E = MC2 refers to the total conversion of matter into pure energy. The sun does not convert matter directly into energy, it combines atoms of hydrogen together to form helium. This is just a nuclear fusion reaction and doesn't have anything to do with Einstein's equations.
What are some examples of matter that can be converted into energy?
There is no such thing as matter-to-energy conversion. It is commonly said, in popular science, that in a nuclear reaction "matter is converted to energy"; actually, both mass and energy are conserved - if you consider all masses involved, the amount of mass before the reaction is the same as after the reaction; the same applies to energy. Search the Wikipedia on "mass deficit", for a more detailed explanation.

When matter undergoes a physical or change are any atoms created ordestroyed?
in a nuclear reaction, matter (atoms) will be converted to energy. Other than that, no. That is called the conservation of mass.
Chemistry Creates Vast Amount Of Energy Through Nuclear Reaction How Does This Work And Can Our World Sustain This Luxury?
Firstly, no it doesn't. That's not chemistry, it's physics.How it works basically boils down to E = mc2. If you convert a tiny amount of matter into energy, you get a tremendousamount of energy."Can Our World Sustain This Luxury" is basically meaningless.
When matter creates a new matter?
Nuclear physicists have theorized that it is possible to transform matter into energy and energy into matter.
