A nuclear fusion reaction could produce a virtually limitless and clean source of energy. This occurs when two light atomic nuclei fuse to form a heavier nucleus. This releases a large amount of energy.

What type of nuclear reaction can produce a limitless source of energy?
You probably mean nuclear fusion, using heavy water found in the oceans. This would not be absolutely limitless, ie not strictly renewable, but as far as human existence goes it would be virtually limitless
Which nuclear reaction is used on earth to produce electricity?
Nuclear fission
Where does the sun produce heat?
From the nuclear reaction of burning hydrogen!
does nuclear fission produce energy?
A controlled nuclear chain reaction produces heat, driving steam turbines to produce energy.
What nuclear reaction is currently used to produce nuclear energy in nuclear reactors?
We use nuclear fission in nuclear reactors to tap nuclear energy.
Who was first to produce and describe an artificial nuclear reaction?
Probably Rutherford.
What nuclear reaction combines gas to form helium and produce most of the suns energy?
nuclear fusion
Nuclear reaction produce huge amounts of energy by transforming tiny amounts of matter True or false?
It is true that nuclear reaction produce huge amounts of energy by transforming tiny amounts of matter.
What kind of reaction occurs to produce energy inside a star?
Nuclear Fusion
What do nuclear reactions on the sun produce?
Nuclear reaction inside the Sun is fusing of Hydrogen to Helium and release out thermal energy.
What do all nuclear fission reactions produce?
All the nuclear fissions produce smaller elements from the larger element and few neutrons so that the fission reaction is continuously carried out.
What is the function of an electrical reactor?
A nuclear reactor contains a nuclear reaction, provides support for the control mechanisms for the reaction, and provides for the transfer of heat to machinery that will use it to produce electric power.
