What heavier elements in the universe were formed by what?
They were formed in supernovae.
What is formed when atoms of different elements combine?
All the compounds existing in the universe are formed.
What elements are formed in cool stars?
Elements that are formed in cool stars are heavy but not heavier than iron. (Elements that are heavier than iron are formed in a supernova.)
What matter in the universe is not formed from a combination of elements found on the periodic table?
Now the periodic table is limited to 118 elements.
How is uranium formed?
Uranium and the majority of the other elements (excepting H, He, Be, Li, transuranium elements) are formed after the big-bang (creation of the universe) by stellar nucleosynthesis in novas and supernovas.
The heavier elements in the universe were formed by .?
They were formed in supernovae.
What heavier elements in the universe were formed by what?
They were formed in supernovae.
How do we get heavy elements?
Heavy elements were formed in stars, and blown out into space in supernova explosions.
What are the heavier elements in this universe formed by?
a series of stars
Why is it likely that life did not form during the very early history of the universe?
In the early Universe, there were no heavy elements around - all the matter of the Universe was in the form of hydrogen, helium, and small amounts of lithium; until the first stars formed, created these heavier elements, and put them out into space when they exploded as supernovae.
Where are heavy elements like nitrogen and iron formed?
Such elements are formed within stars. The heavy elements which are currently here on Earth were formed in stars some time ago, and then they were blown into space in supernova explosions.
What is formed when atoms of different elements combine?
All the compounds existing in the universe are formed.
What elements are formed in cool stars?
Elements that are formed in cool stars are heavy but not heavier than iron. (Elements that are heavier than iron are formed in a supernova.)
What is the heavier elements in the universe formed by?
a series of star cycles
Where did most of the elements heavier than Hydrogen and Helium form in the Universe?
Other elements were formed in stars by nucleosynthesis.
What matter in the universe is not formed from a combination of elements found on the periodic table?
Now the periodic table is limited to 118 elements.
Is Gold and silver formed on other planets?
Gold and silver - and indeed all the elements are not formed on any planet (though they may be found on planets). the elements Hydrogen and Helium were formed at the begining of the universe during the early stages of the big bang. Later all the other elements up to the mass of Iron were formed from hydrogen and helium in the cores of stars. The elements heavier than Iron are all formed in supernova explosions when big stars explode at the end of their lives. These explosions scatter these new heavy elements out into space where the eventually collapse to form new suns and the planets round these suns. Thus all the Gold and Silver found on earth were formed in dead stars and were part of the dusty disk that formed round our sun in its youth. This disk gave rise to all the planets and therefore there will be some Gold and Silver in all the planets. Elements are not formed on planets (Unless human intervention was involved). Heavy metals like Gold and Silver are formed through fusion inside of a star. As a result, gold and silver should be scattered throughout the universe.
