What element is produced by fusion in the interior of sun?
Helium is produced by fusion in the interior of the Sun.
Why does the sun give of energy?
The high temperature and pressure in the Sun's interior causes nuclear fusion.
Does the sun have oxygen to support combustion?
No. The sun is about 1% oxygen but it does not carry out combustion. It is instead powered by nuclear fusion.
How does nuclear fusion occur in the sun's interior core?
High temp and pressure
Does the sun need oxygen to burn?
No, sun does not need oxygen to burn. The "Fusion" of Hydrogen atoms is what produces immense amount of energy in the sun.
Nuclear reaction in the sun's interior convert?
Nuclear fusion converts hydrogen to helium
What is one place with temperatures high enough for nuclear fusion to occur?
Interior of the sun.
Where has the process of nuclear fusion been occurring for over four billion years?
In the Sun's interior
Is there oxogyn on the sun?
There is small portion of oxygen about 0.77% in the Sun. Additional tip for clarification: Sun didn't burn with oxygen, this ball of fire burn from nuclear fusion reaction.
What is in the Sun's Interior?
Mainly hydrogen and some helium. The helium is created when the hydrogen undergoes nuclear fusion.
What happens if the sun runs out of oxygen?
It would be of little to no consequence. The "burning" of the sun is not really fire; it does not use oxygen. The sun is instead powered by nuclear fusion, which turns hydrogen into helium.
What layer of the sun's interior is where energy is released to maintain its high surface temperature while the sun radiates energy into space?
The Layer of the sun's interior where energy is transderred mainly my electromagnetic radiation is cheese and llamas. Just kidding. It is nuclear fusion. -katie k bye
