What is the process called in which atomic nuclei combine to form a large nucleus releasing huge amounts of energy?
In nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry, nuclear fusionis the process by which multiple like-charged atomic nuclei join together to form a heavier nucleus. It is accompanied by the release or absorption of energy, which allows matter to enter a plasma state.The fusion of two nuclei with lower mass than iron (which, along with nickel, has the largest binding energy per nucleon) generally releases energy while the fusion of nuclei heavier than iron absorbs energy; vice-versa for the reverse process, nuclear fission. In the simplest case of hydrogen fusion, two protons have to be brought close enough for their mutual electric repulsion to be overcome by the nuclear force and the subsequent release of energy.
This is also known as atomic energy?
The source of atomic energy is the "binding energy" that exists in the nucleus of all atoms. This is the energy that is contained in the union of the protons and neutrons of the nucleus. When the nucleus is split apart, the binding energy is released.
What is the name of the spontaneous process that releases particles and energy from the nucleus of an atom?
Radioactive decay.
The energy released when neutrons and protons combine to form a nucleus is known as the?

What process provides the suns energy?
it s a nuclear process in which smaller nuclei combine to form huge nucleus. in this process some amount of mass convert into energy in the form of light and light
Energy released from the sun results from the process wherein atomic nuclei?

What does the process in which an unstable atomic nucleus emits charged particles or energy or both?
In the process of radioactive decay an unstable atomic nucleus emits energy to get closer to a state of stability. Whether this energy is emitted in particles, electromagnetic radiation, or both depends on which decay paths are available to the nucleus and which decay paths are forbidden to the nucleus by Quantum Mechanics.Some of the decay processes are:alpha - energy is released in the momentum of the ejected alpha particle (helium nucleus)beta - energy is released in the momentum of the ejected electron or positron (and the hard to detect neutrino)gamma - energy is released as electromagnetic radiation (gamma ray photon)spontaneous fission - energy is released in the momentum of the ejected fission product atoms and the ejected neutrons
When atoms combine with or break apart from other atoms a what occurs?
When new bonds are formed between atoms, energy is released and this process is known as exothermic process. Similarly when old bonds break, energy from the surrounding is absorbed and is known as endothermic process.
Energy is released when smaller nuclei join to form a larger nucleus in a process called what?
Nuclear fusion
What is the process when a star combines two hydrogen atoms to make a helium atom?
3 Helium nuclei combine to form a carbon nucleus,releasing light energy
What is the name of the process where two atoms combine to make a larger one releasing energy?
what is The process of is when two atoms combine to form a largeer atom releasing energy
When atoms are split which part of the atom is energy released?
nucleus. the nucleus gets the energy and the realises it to the protons and the electrons.
What is the processes of fission?
Energy is released when the the mass of the nucleus of an atom is reduced by the release of neutrons and gamma photons during the process of nuclear fission.
Do the nucleus capture the sun's energy?
No it is not nucleus. It is the chloroplast
The process in which organisms combine oxygen with glucose to produce energy?
respiration
