Does the ratio of Helium atoms to Hydrogen atoms become larger as a star ages?

yes because when a star ages, the star collapses forming new stars which make up more atoms.

Are hydrogen or oxygen atoms used to produce helium atoms with larger masses in nuclear fusion?
Hydrogen.
How many hydrogen atoms that fuse to form a helium is?
two hydrogen atoms
What heavier element is created when hydrogen atoms fuse together in the suns core?
Normal "main sequence" stars fuse hydrogen into helium during most of the star's life. The core of a star gets so hot that the hydrogen atoms begin to fuse together. As hydrogen only has 1 proton when if fuses with another hydrogen atom it has 2 protons so has become helium.
What are the products and reactants in the primary fusion reaction carried out within the sun?
The reactants are Hydrogen atoms and products are Helium atoms. Because Helium atoms are larger than Hydrogen atom, large amount of energy is released from the net binding energy that resulted during the fusion process.
An atom of helium has a mass about four times greater than that of an atom of hydrogen Which choice makes the correct comparison of the relative numbers of helium and hydrogen atoms in equal masses o?
the number of helium and hydrogen atoms is the same
Hydrogen atoms fuse and become what?
Helium
Are hydrogen or oxygen atoms used to produce helium atoms with larger masses in nuclear fusion?
Hydrogen.
How does hydrogen occur?
When two hydrogen atoms fuse to become one helium atom.
How does hydrogen fusion occur?
When two hydrogen atoms fuse to become one helium atom.
What atoms do the sun produce by fusing hydrogen atoms?
The sun produces energy by fusing hydrogen atoms into helium atoms. This is a nuclear fusion that occurs at the sun's core.
What are 2 nuclear reactions?
The two main categories are (1) fusion: joining small atoms into larger atoms, such as hydrogen-1 into helium-4, and (2) fission, the splitting of certain large atoms, such as U-235.The two main categories are (1) fusion: joining small atoms into larger atoms, such as hydrogen-1 into helium-4, and (2) fission, the splitting of certain large atoms, such as U-235.The two main categories are (1) fusion: joining small atoms into larger atoms, such as hydrogen-1 into helium-4, and (2) fission, the splitting of certain large atoms, such as U-235.The two main categories are (1) fusion: joining small atoms into larger atoms, such as hydrogen-1 into helium-4, and (2) fission, the splitting of certain large atoms, such as U-235.
The sun fuses hydrogen atoms into what?
Hydrogen atoms fuse into helium.
Is the ratio of the amount of hydrogen and helium in the sun increasing or decreasing?
Since hydrogen atoms in the sun are fused into helium atoms, the amount of helium is increasing and the amount of hydrogen is decreasing.
How many hydrogen atoms that fuse to form a helium is?
two hydrogen atoms
Do Hydrogen and helium atoms make up fifty percent of atoms in outer space?
Hydrogen and helium make about 98% of the atoms in the solar system !
In stars energy is produced as primarily hydrogen atoms are combined to form?
helium atoms
