Stars do not carry out a chemical reaction; they carry out a thermonuclear reaction. Instead of chemicals reactiing to form new compounds, hydrogen atoms fuse together to formm helium. This process releases far more energy than any chemical reaction.

Where star get it light?

Stars create light by fusing hydrogen into helium. This nuclear reaction creates a great amount of energy which releases light and energy. This expanding force a\is counterbalanced by gravity, keeping the star stable.

How does a spectrograph provide information about stars chemical composition?

A spectrograph breaks down the light from stars into its component colors or wavelengths. Each chemical element absorbs and emits light at specific wavelengths, creating a unique fingerprint called a spectral line. By analyzing the spectral lines in a star's light, scientists can determine its chemical composition.

What are the names of the elements used to create the light in a star?

Hydrogen and helium are the main elements used to create light in stars through the process of nuclear fusion in their cores. These elements undergo fusion reactions to produce energy, which is emitted as light and heat.


What is the universe's primary source of light?

The universe's primary source of light is stars. Stars are massive balls of gas that undergo nuclear fusion, generating heat and light that radiates out into space. Other sources of light in the universe include galaxies, quasars, and other celestial objects.
