What process produces the largest amount of energy given off by stars?
Nuclear Fusion
What is the Stars fusion?
Atomic fusion is the process by which elements which are brought into intimate contact, will undergo fusion, and will form a heavier element, and will emit energy in the process. Much of this released energy is the from the 'binding energy' of the atom.

What elements are fusing in the sun's core right now?
In a process known as nuclear fusion, hydrogen is constantly fused into helium.
What is the process that generates energy in the core of a main sequence star?
The process is nuclear fusion of hydrogen. All stars at their main sequence converts hydrogen to helium giving large energy by during hydrogen atoms into helium nucliiFusion of hydrogen.
What is the process called which formed elements from hydrogen and helium after the Big Bang occured?
Fusion or Nuclear Fusion
Where does the carbon come from and where does it end up?
Carbon is formed during the fusion process within stars. When the star can no longer sustain stable fusion, it explodes and scatters its constituent elements throughout the universe.
What process turns a star into energy?
Nuclear fusion, of lighter elements onto heavier elements.
What nuclear process occurred when light elements combine to form heavier elements?
Nuclear Fusion
Nuclear fusion only releases energy when elements that are lighter than what element are involved?
Nuclear Fusion only releases energy when elements that are higher than what Nuclear Fusion produces certain sotopes of lighter elements.
What process turns a star matter into energy?
Nuclear fusion, of lighter elements onto heavier elements.
What it a process in which lighter elements stick together to create heavier elements?
The process in which lighter elements stick together to create heavier elements is known as fusion. This is the process that will be used in the synthesis of a heavier atomic nuclei.
What type of elements is generally involved in fusion reactions?
These elements are hydrogen isotopes (deuterium and tritium), helium, lithium, boron.
What process produces the largest amount of energy given off by stars?
Nuclear Fusion
What are the differences of fission and fusion?
Fission is the process of taking a heavy element and splitting it into two or more smaller elements. Whereas fusion is the process of forming a heavier element by fusing two or more smaller elements.
In stars hydrogen nuclei combine with each other to form helium and other heavier elements. What is this process called?
This process is called "nuclear fusion".
In a nuclear reaction energy is release by the combination of two elements into a new element is the process of what?
The process of combining elements to create a new element is nuclear fusion. As we normally consider it, in this process, a great deal of energy is liberated. They are exothermic. But there are types of fusion that are endothermic, though we only encounter them in something like a supernova.
