What else can I help you with?
Name the process that causes a star to begin producing vast amounts of energy?
Nuclear fusion is the process that causes a star to begin producing vast amounts of energy by converting hydrogen into helium through a series of fusion reactions in its core.
Where does our sun get its energy from?
Fusion reactions
What are true reactions of the Sun?
They are fusion reactions, and The force to get the reactions to occur comes from gravity.
What is the critical temperature at which nuclear reactions begin?
For nuclear fission reactors there is no critical temperature, though they do have a temperature coefficient which makes the efficiency of the chain reaction vary slightly with temperature. This can be negative or positive, obvously a negative coefficient is preferred and is safer. Nuclear fusion is another matter, and very high temperatures are required in tokamaks to get fusion started
Is solar energy is due to?
fusion reactions
Where in the Sun do fusion reactions happen?
core and radiation
What is the key difference between fission and fusion reactions in terms of energy release?
The key difference between fission and fusion reactions in terms of energy release is that fission reactions involve the splitting of heavy atomic nuclei, releasing energy, while fusion reactions involve the combining of light atomic nuclei, also releasing energy.
Fusion reactions on the sun?
yes nuclear fusion does occur on the sun, creating intense heat and light
What chemical reaction produces the sun and energy?
These are not chemical reactions but thermonuclear reactions.
Reactions involving the particles in the nucleus of an atom are called what?
Nuclear Fusion. This process involves 'fusing' together two smaller nuclei to form a bigger nucleus.
What type of reactions can generate the most energy of nuclear?
Nuclear fusion reactions can generate the most energy compared to other types of nuclear reactions. Fusion involves combining light nuclei to form heavier nuclei, releasing large amounts of energy in the process. This is the same process that powers the sun and other stars.
Which nuclear reactions is the source of the sums energy?
Nuclear fusion
