What else can I help you with?
What fuel is the sun using to release energy?
Our sun, Sol, uses hydrogen for fuel.
I know that the Sun burns hydrogen to create helium but what is the Sun doing with all of this helium What would happen if the sun had no helium And what role does helium play in making the sun hot?
The Sun uses the energy produced from converting hydrogen into helium through nuclear fusion to generate heat and light. If the Sun had no helium, it wouldn't be able to sustain this fusion process, leading to a lack of energy production and a collapse in the Sun's structure. Helium plays a crucial role in the fusion reactions that occur in the Sun, contributing to the high temperatures and pressures required to sustain nuclear fusion.
What would happen if all the hydrogen present in the sun is converted into helium?
Wait about 5 billion years and you will find out. Oh, you can't wait that long.... Basically, the Sun will die. As the amount of hydrogen decreases, the temperature also decreases and the Sun expands into a red giant. Slowly loosing it's outer envelope into space. After about a billion years, all that will be left is a small degenerate star, called a white dwarf.
The sun will eventually use up its hydrogen fuel and become what?
The sun will eventually exhaust its hydrogen fuel and will undergo a transformation into a red giant star. This will happen in about 5 billion years. After that, it will shed its outer layers and become a white dwarf.
What will happen to the relative amounts of hydrogen and helium in the sun over the next few billion years?
Over the next few billion years, the hydrogen content in the sun will decrease as it fuses into helium through nuclear fusion. This process will cause the relative amount of helium to increase in the sun over time.
What is the important gas the sun uses?
hydrogen
What will happen to earth once the sun uses all its fuel up?
we will die
What is the main gas the sun uses?
Hydrogen gas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does the sun produce hydrogen?
No. It uses hydrogen during nuclear fusion to produce helium.
What fuel is the sun using to release energy?
Our sun, Sol, uses hydrogen for fuel.
What will happen to our sun when it uses all its energy?
IT will no longer porvide light, which would make life impossible on earth
Why will the sun burn out?
The sun generates energy by fusing hydrogen into helium. Eventually it will run out of hydrogen. However, this won't happen for several billion years.
Which element is plentiful on the sun?
In the definition, sun is a star because it produces its own light and heat. How does it produce such great energy? It uses hydrogen. Hydrogen is the element which is abundand in the sun in order to produce solar energy.
What are the fuel sources for the sun?
The primary fuel source for the sun is hydrogen, which undergoes nuclear fusion to form helium. This process releases a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat. The sun converts about 4 million tons of mass into energy every second.
I know that the Sun burns hydrogen to create helium but what is the Sun doing with all of this helium What would happen if the sun had no helium And what role does helium play in making the sun hot?

Helium plays a crucial role in the fusion reactions that occur in the Sun, contributing to the high temperatures and pressures required to sustain nuclear fusion.
How come the sun can survive in without oxygen?
The sun is not burning like a true fire. It is powered instead by nuclear fusion, which uses hydrogen.
What are the chances of your sun being replaced by another one?
The sun does not get replaced, firstly it goes through many stages and then when there is no more hydrogen to burn, it will explode. For the Earth that means we will all DIE!!!! But that won't happen for a long while.
