Fusion of two hydrogen nuclei results in the formation of helium and a stray neutron.

H31 + H21 -----> He42 + n10 The hydrogen with atomic number 3 is trituim and the hydrogen with atomic no. 2 is deutrium. They both fuse together to form Helium with the release of a spray neutron, accompanied by a large release of energy.

What fusion in stars occurs to create the element helium?

Hydrogen fusion occurs in stars to create helium. This process, known as nuclear fusion, involves the fusion of hydrogen nuclei to form helium nuclei, releasing large amounts of energy in the process.


What nuclei are fused in the nuclear reaction of a hydrogen bomb?

In a hydrogen bomb, hydrogen isotopes such as deuterium (2H) and tritium (3H) are fused together to form helium. The main reaction involves the fusion of deuterium and tritium nuclei to create a helium nucleus, along with a neutron and release of a large amount of energy.


What is preventing fusion energy from filling out current energy needs?

in neclear fusion, two hydrogen nuclei combine to create a helium, which has slightly less mass than the two hydrogen nuclei. The lost mass is converted to energy.


What does nuclear fusion create inside of stars?

Inside the sun, nuclear fusion creates helium nuclei from...a. oxygen nuclei. b. beryllium nuclei.c. carbon nuclei.d. hydrogen nuclei.The answer is d. hydrogen nuclei.


What does the fusion of hydrogen nuclei in sun produce?

The fusion of hydrogen nuclei in the sun produces helium, along with energy in the form of light and heat. This process is known as nuclear fusion and is the source of the sun's energy.


Which pair of nuclei can undergo a fusion reaction?

Hydrogen-2 (deuterium) and hydrogen-3 (tritium) nuclei can undergo fusion to form helium-4, releasing a neutron in the process. This fusion reaction is the basis for fusion energy production in potential future reactor designs.


What is the difference between fusion and fission atomic bombs?

Good question. A fusion bomb combines (fuses) light nuclei (hydrogen) into larger nuclei to get its energy. But it needs a fission bomb to start it. A fission bomb breaks up (fissions) heavy nuclei (uranium/plutonium) into smaller nuclei to get its energy.


Is Fusion a process in which existing nuclei combine to make new nuclei?

Yes. In nuclear fusion, experiments are trying to produce fusion of nuclei of deuterium and tritium, which are isotopes of hydrogen. The product will be nuclei of helium plus released energy.
