How does nuclear fusion compare to a reaction involving two hydrogen atoms combining to form a hydrogen molecule H2?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
Nuclear fusion is the coming together of two nuclei to form a different element whereas the combining of two hydrogen atoms to form H2 gas is just a chemical reaction where a covalent bonds form between two hydrogen atoms. Nuclear fusion involves combining of two nuclei whereas in the covalent bond formation the electrons of the hydrogen atoms interact with each other.

What reaction builds one large molecule by combining multiple molecules?
This is a polymerization reaction.
Is combining hydrogen and oxygen to make water physical?
This is a chemical reaction.
Why do hydrogen combines with chlorine in sunlight?
It is a photochemical reaction; the diatomic molecule of chlorine is photochemically (under the action of photons) dissociated in chlorine radicals. Chlorine radicals react with the diatomic molecule of hydrogen to form hydrogen chloride (HCl). A radical chain reaction was initiated and is continued. For details you can read a very interesting article at the link below.
What does a synthesis reaction look like?
H2+O2=H2O is what a synthesis reaction would look like or also is the creation of water by combining hydrogen with oxygen
When two amino acids combine to form a polypeptide what else is formed?
it is condensation reaction involving loss of smaller molecule water in this case...
What is a reaction involving oxygen which is not oxidation?
Water or H2O is not an oxidizing reaction. Instead two oxygen modecules bond to a single hydrogen atom to form the molecule.
What reaction builds one large molecule by combining multiple molecules?
This is a polymerization reaction.
In the example of hydrogen plus oxygen water which type of reaction does this represent?
Hydrogen combining with oxygen to form water is an exothermic reaction, which is why hydrogen burns.
Is combining hydrogen and oxygen a double-replacement reaction?
No. Combining two elements to form a compound is a synthesis reaction.
Is combining hydrogen and oxygen to make water physical?
This is a chemical reaction.
What is the reaction involving the Burning of Hydrogen?
When you burn Hydrogen and Oxygen You end up with a water molecule that has an extra oxygen atom ~This is true, but H2O2, hydrogen peroxide is relatively unstable. When hydrogen gas is burned in the presence of oxygen, it is mostly to yield water and oxygen. 2H2 +2O2 → 2H2O + O2
One gold sulfate molecule reacts with three hydrogen molecule to make hydrogen sulfate and gold A gold sulfate molecule includes two gold atoms How many gold atoms will be present after this reaction?
hydrogen is not a molecule.
How does a element become a compound?
The difference between an element and compound can be understood with the help of the following example. Let us consider Hydrogen and Oxygen. Hydrogen is naturally found as H2. The symbol of hydrogen is H. Now, H2 is one molecule of hydrogen. H is the element.Similarly O2 is a molecule. O is the element called oxygen.When you have combine hydrogen and oxygen in a chemical reaction, we get one molecule of the compound which is H2O or water.As the name suggests compound; as in mathematics is some sort of an addition. In this case two elements are combining. In some cases you can have multiple elements combining to form a compound. Eg. Carbon, hydrogen and Oxygen can form hydrocarbons such as CH3OH C2H5OH etc.
When a glucose molecule loses a hydrogen atom as the result of an oxidation-reduction reaction the molecule becomes?
oxidized
What molecule leaves the thylakoid to provide hydrogen for the carbon-fixation reaction?
NADPH.
How do you generate water?
Water (H2O) is a chemical compound made by chemically combining One molecule of Oxygen gas (O2) with Two molecules of Hydrogen gas (H2). The reaction is strongly exothermic (It is what NASA uses as rocket fuel).
Why the reaction between hydrogen and chlorine is very slow at room temperature?
Because hydrogen molecule is very stable and it is because of high dissociation enthalpy of hydrogen molecule, it reacts slowly with chlorine at room temperature.
