All of them. There are no elements lighter than hydrogen. It has only two atomic particles, and you cannot have an element with less.

How are elements heavier than hydrogen formed?
They are formed inside of stars.
What are the two main elements of the sun?
Hydrogen and Helium. Also comprised of a core of much heavier elements, all the elements in the universe heavier than hydrogen probably came from supernovae.
How are elements formed from hydrogen?
Heavier elements are formed from hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe, through a process called nuclear fusion. There are machines or structures in the universe that do this, and we call them stars. It is the process within stars, stellar nucleosynthesis, that allows heavier elements to be created up through iron. Elements heavier than iron are formed in supernova events.

How are heavier elements formed from hydrogen within the core of a star?
by the process of nuclear fusion
What do hydrogen bombs ands stars both produce nuclear with?
The process of fusion, where hydrogen is fused into heavier elements, releasing energy in the process.
How are elements heavier than hydrogen formed?

Hydrogen and Helium. Also comprised of a core of much heavier elements, all the elements in the universe heavier than hydrogen probably came from supernovae.
Where did most of the elements heavier than Hydrogen and Helium form in the Universe?
Other elements were formed in stars by nucleosynthesis.
What is the sun formed from?
hydrogen, helium, and a small amount (less than 2%) of heavier elements
Where did all the elements come from?
Hydrogen, some helium and less lithium are the result of the big bang. All the other elements are made inside the cores of stars, except for elements heavier than iron. All elements heavier than iron are created during supernova explosions.
How is a supernova related to matter found on earth?
A supernova is a star that explodes. Stars about the size of our Sun explode when they run out of "fuel". The fuel they have is Hydrogen which they fuse into Helium and thus convert mass into energy (they shine brightly), Then the Helium and some Hydrogen are fused into heavier elements (Lithium etc) making more energy. All elements heavier than Carbon and lighter than Iron are made in the supernova explosion that comes at the end of the star's "life". Heavier stars will make even heavier elements. The Earth is mostly made of these heavier elements. We are all stardust.
What are two atoms that are heavier than carbon?
Elements with atomic numbers 1-5 are lighter than carbon.
What gas is heavier hydrogen or oxygen?
oxygen gas is heavier than hydrogen gas

Fusing hydrogen atoms into heavier elements produces?
It is believed this was how the universe formed. Hydrogen fuses to form all the other heavier elements on the periodic table up to Element number 92
Why does your sun have 2 percent heavier elements and from where do they come?
I think it's our Sun which gets heavier elements from fusion of hydrogen and other light elements.Edit: Our Sun does create helium from hydrogen by fusion, but that's all. The reason it has heavier elements is that these come from the nebula that formed the Sun. The heavier elements are thought to have come from stars that exploded as "supernovas", a long time ago.
What is the fuel of a star in space?
Hydrogen , Helium and a few heavier elements.
