What else can I help you with?
Do helium and hydrogen bond together?
Helium does not form chemical bonds with other elements, including hydrogen. Hydrogen, however, can bond with other elements like oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen to form various compounds.
Which is heavier hydrogen or helium?
Helium is heavier than hydrogen. Hydrogen is the lightest and simplest element in the periodic table, while helium is the second lightest element.
How much lighter is hydrogen compared to helium?
Hydrogen is about 7 lighter than helium.
The two elements most abundant in the universe are?
Hydrogen and helium are the two most abundant elements in the universe.
What are the two main elements of the sun?
Hydrogen and Helium. Also comprised of a core of much heavier elements, all the elements in the universe heavier than hydrogen probably came from supernovae.
Why is helium safer then hydrogen for use in airships?
Helium is inert. Will not burn like hydrogen does so well.
How is helium and hydrogen used on a large scale?
helium does not burn, hydrogen will burn in air
Is it true stars like the sun burn hydrogen producing helium?
All stars fuse hydrogen into helium - the slight difference in atomic weight between 4 hydrogen atoms and one helium atom, is given off as radiation.
What are the gases that burn in the sun?
it is made of mostly hydrogen and helium
Helium safer than hydrogen?
Yes, because helium doesn't react, burn or explode.
Can a red dwarf burn hydrogen?
A red dwarf fuses hydrogen into helium, just like any star, albeit at a very conservative rate.
Is the oxygen sufficient for burning of hydrogen on the sun?
No. The hydrogen on the Sun does not burn; it fuses to make helium instead.
Do different types of stars burn different fuel?
Yes, young stars burn Hydrogen and produce Helium. As they age, they often turn into red giants, and at that time they burn the Helium, making Oxygen and Carbon. Very large stars can even burn the Oxygen and Carbon, making even heaver elements, such as Iron.
What ful do stars on the main sequence burn?
it is fusion of hydrogen into helium. (like our sun) if it is a red giant (the next stage of our suns life) it is burning helium into denser things.
What does a red dwarf sun burn?
Like all main sequence stars, a red dwarf is powered by the fusion of hydrogen into helium.
What does a star primarily burn in its lifetime?
Most stars, for most of their existence, fuse hydrogen into helium.
When does hydrogen-helium fusion and helium-carbon fusion occur in stars like our sun?
When hydrogen stocks run out
