Does nitrogen come from volcanoes?
Lots of gases come from volcanic eruptions, including Nitrogen. Helium is the surprising one since it is made from nuclear fusion and decay.
How is oxygen formed with nuclear fusion?
Oxygen is formed in stars by fusion of Hydrogen with Nitrogen. There are various ways this is done, involving various isotopes. There are links Wikipedia, below. The first deals with the Carbon-Nitrogen-Oxygen cycles, and is specific to this question. The second is more general.
How are nitrogen oxygen and argon formed?
Nitrogen and oxygen are formed primarily by thermonuclear fusion in stars. Argon is formed by radioactive decay of potassium - which is also formed in stars.
A reaction in combining smaller atomic nuclei is?
nuclear fusion
What is the CNO cycle?
The CNO cycle (carbon nitrogen oxygen) alternately called Bethe-Weizsäcker-cycle, is one of two types of fusion reactions by which stars convert hydrogen to helium, the other is the proton proton chain.
What process has changed the percentages of nitrogen in the atmosphere?
Nitrogen has been present forever. It is the most abundant gas. Industrial revolution has changed it's concentration.

What specific nuclear fusion reaction occurs in the sun?
The proton-proton chain accounts for more than 98% of the fusion reactions in our Sun. The balance in the carbon-nitrogen-oxygen catalytic chain reaction.
Nearly 70 percent of the world's nitrogen is produced in the ocean?
I don't think the ocean produces nitrogen or oxygen for that matter. Nitrogen comes from fusion (in a star, hydrogen turns into helium, which in turn changes into heavier elements). The ocean may store some nitrogen as a dissolved gas and nitrogen in the form of compounds such as NH3 and other soluble salts.
How are the elements carbon nitrogen and oxygen produced in stars like the sun?
These fusion (carbon , nitrogen , and oxygen) reactions form nuclei of sightly heavier elements.
What process is responsible for the production of tremendous heat of the sun?
Nuclear fusion, specifically the proton-proton (P-P) chain, is responsible for more than 98% of the Sun's energy. Less than 2% of the Sun's energy is estimated to come from the Carbon-Nitrogen-Oxygen Fusion Cycle, because the Sun is not massive enough to depend on the CNO cycle.
Are you made of stars?
Yes indeed! We all are made of nitrogen in our DNA, produced as stellar nuclear waste by the nuclear fusion in the cores of stars
Why only sodium metal is used for sodium fusion test?
When an organic compound is heated strongly with sodium, any halogens, nitrogen, and sulfur will be converted into inorganic sodium salts such as sodium halide (for halides), sodium cyanide(for nitrogen), sodium sulfide (for sulfur), and sodium thiocyanate (for sulfur and nitrogen).The nitrogen is confirmed with ferrous sulfate i.e. iron sulfate.
What are the basics steps of star formation?
first theres a black hole then if its strong enough in makes a swirl of plasma, nitrogen and fusion then after 1000years the forming is done.
Helium fusion results in the production of?
Primarily carbon (atomic number 6), but there are some nuclear processes that yield nitrogen (7) and oxygen (8).
