Carbon fusion requires a temperature of 500 million K and a density of 3 million g/cc. It follows three different processes:

  • 12C + 12C --> 20Ne + 4He (4.62 MeV)
  • 12C + 12C --> 23Na + p (2.24 MeV)
  • 12C + 12C --> 23Mg + n (-2.62 MeV)

The fusion of carbon with itself can result in the formation of various isotopes, such as carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14. These isotopes differ in the number of neutrons in their nucleus but have the same number of protons, which is 6. Carbon-12 is the most common and stable isotope of carbon.

How is oxygen produce?

Oxygen is produced as a result of various reactions of nuclear fusion inside the stars. Most simple one is the fusion of carbon and helium atoms.Oxygen is created in the cores of stars, where it is the result of the fusion of lighter elements.On Earth, the free oxygen molecules in the atmosphere is released by plants as a byproduct from the process of photosynthesis.

What will the helium become when it grows up?

Helium is an inert gas; it does not react in any chemical reactions. It does not form any molecules. Helium is formed in the Sun as the result of the fusion of hydrogen nuclei in nuclear fusion. In the cores of dying stars, helium will fuse into carbon and other heavier elements.
