What else can I help you with?
How does the sun produce its own energy source?
fusion reaction of helium and hydrogen
In nuclear fusion what atoms are used to produce helium atoms with larger masses?
In nuclear fusion, atoms of hydrogen isotopes such as deuterium and tritium are used to produce helium atoms with larger masses. The fusion reaction involves the combination of these hydrogen isotopes to form helium, releasing a significant amount of energy in the process.
When the cloud contracts and powerful reaction start to turn hydrogen atoms into helium atoms to produce energy an?
Probable you think to a fusion reaction.
What waste product does a fusion reaction generate?
A fusion reaction generates helium as a waste product.
Can helium be turned into hydrogen to produce energy?
Helium cannot be turned into hydrogen to produce energy. Helium and hydrogen are two different elements with different atomic structures and properties. However, fusion reactions involving hydrogen isotopes such as deuterium and tritium can produce energy in a process known as nuclear fusion.
Stars produce energy by fusing hydrogen into what?
Stars produce energy by fusing hydrogen into helium through a process called nuclear fusion. This fusion reaction releases a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat, which powers the star and allows it to shine.
Is an isotope formed in a nuclear reaction likely to be radioactive?
Not necessarily. The fusion reactions in the sun produce primarily helium-4 which is stable.
What nuclear reaction combines gas to form helium and produce most of the suns energy?
The nuclear reaction that combines hydrogen to form helium and produces most of the sun's energy is called nuclear fusion. In this reaction, hydrogen nuclei (protons) fuse together to form helium nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of light and heat.
What does deuterium and tritium make?
Deuterium and tritium can undergo nuclear fusion to produce helium-4 and a neutron. This reaction is the basis for the energy production in hydrogen bombs and is a potential energy source for fusion reactors.
How did polaris produce energy?
By thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium.
Does the sun produce hydrogen?
No. It uses hydrogen during nuclear fusion to produce helium.
What type of gas combines to form helium?
hydrogen combine to form helium by nuclear fusion reaction
