Why did nuclei fuse together?
Basically because both nuclei are positively charged so repel each other.
What element do you get if you fuse two helium nuclei together?
Nuclear fusion occurs when two nuclei fuse together. This is frequently nuclei of deuterium and tritium (both hydrogen isotopes), which form a helium nucleus plus a neutron.
What is it called when two nuclei fuse together?
Fusion. When a nucleus splits into two or more fragments this is called Fission.
What is it called when two atoms smash together?
nuclear fission (if the atomic nuclei are broken into smaller lighter elements) nuclear fusion (if the nuclei fuse to form a heavier element)
What is the process called when atoms join together?
If you mean covalent bonding...well then they bonded.
When is energy in the sun produced?
..particles (nuclei) fuse together to form heavier nuclei. Initially, two protons fuse together (hydrogen atom nuclei) to form deuterium. These in turn may fuse with further protons, or with another deuterium nuclei to for a helium nuclei. As the heavier nuclei form, lots of energy is released.
Energy is produced in the sun when two?

What keeps atoms from fusing together?
It is the nulei which fuse. Nuclei are positively charged and thus repel each other. The kinetic energy of the nuclei must be very large for nuclei to be able to fuse, such as at the surface of the sun, where hydrogen nuclei fuse to form helium nuclei.
What element is formed when hydrogen nuclei fuse together?
Helium
How many helium nuclei fuse together when making carbon?
3
When two or more nuclei join together or fuse?
nuclear fission
What is the simplest form of fusion that occurs in stars?
Hydrogen nuclei (protons) fuse together and produce helium nuclei
Why did nuclei fuse together?

What happens in a fusion reaction?
Two nuclei fuse together to form another element

Definition of nuclear fusion?
Where people fuse two atoms together to make the nuclei heavier
