At the age the sun is now it is still fusing hydrogen into helium.
technically speaking, stars are first made of Hydrogen. The moment the star comes to life, it starts fusing together Hydrogen atoms, forming helium. when a star is nearing the end of its life, it starts fusing together helium and keeps on fusing until there is nothing more to fuse. then, the star dies.
Nuclear fusion is the coming together of two nuclei to form a different element whereas the combining of two hydrogen atoms to form H2 gas is just a chemical reaction where a covalent bonds form between two hydrogen atoms. Nuclear fusion involves combining of two nuclei whereas in the covalent bond formation the electrons of the hydrogen atoms interact with each other.
I'm not sure what you are asking, but atomic fusion is a process by which two atoms are forced together to form one larger atom. This is the process that drives the sun where it is mostly fusing two hydrogen atoms into one helium atom. Fusion reactions can also occur here on Earth in a hydrogen bomb explosion or in a particle accelerator where atoms are smashed together at great velocity and occasionally stick together to form new atoms. This is basically the process by which transuranic elements are created.
E = mc2 A byproduct of the fusion reaction is a loss of a tiny amount of mass, which is converted into energy.
There are many types of atoms which combine quite easily with other atoms. Anytime you have a fire, something is combining with oxygen atoms. That is the easiest type of combination to bring about. But there are lots of other chemical reactions that can be easily made to happen. Put the right chemicals together and they will react.
It is called Fusing. Or FUSION.
The sun is fusing hydrogen atoms together, turning them into helium.
Yes it does. It produces helium by fusing hydrogen
Billions of tons of pressure and heat due to the fusing atoms of Hydrogen and Helium. It does vary from star to star but it is unlivable for anything in the Universe. Not even the Atoms inside survive they get fused together to become a hydrogen helium compound that is not possible to replicate anywhere but the star itself.
Nuclear fusion. This is the process of fusing two atoms together to make a heavier one. Don't confuse this with nuclear fission, though. Fission is the process of splitting atoms apart (that is what we use for nuclear power plants.)

This is the fusing of hydrogen atoms to form helium atoms, and in some cases heavier elements as well. The dominant reaction in our Sun is the combining of hydrogen isotope atoms to form helium atoms. Deuterium atoms, which are hydrogen atoms which have a neutron, are forced together to form a helium atom, which is two protons and two neutrons, and some energy is produced. The Sun is slowing using up its supply of hydrogen, but there is enough to last for at least another two or three billion years.
The sun produces energy by fusing hydrogen atoms into helium atoms. This is a nuclear fusion that occurs at the sun's core.
Combining lighter atoms to produce heavier atoms is called fusion.
The covalent bonds are their role in combining atoms Is In Your Facee ;D
