Why is the amount of hydrogen in the sun decreasing?
The amount of hydrogen in the Sun is decreasing because nuclear fusion converts hydrogen into helium in the Sun's core. As the Sun converts hydrogen into helium, it gradually loses mass and energy, leading to a decrease in the hydrogen content over time. This process is part of the Sun's natural life cycle.
Which is the most abundant element in the sun?
Hydrogen is the most common element in the universe, and in the Sun.
About how many years does it take for a star to run out of its fuel hydrogen?
It typically takes around 10 billion years for a star like the sun to consume all its hydrogen fuel and enter a different phase of its life cycle. The exact duration can vary depending on the size and type of the star.
How many atoms are there in the sun if all the atoms are hydrogen and if the mass of the sun is 2 x 10 to the power of 30 kg and the mass of a hydrogen atom is 1.67 x 10 to the power of -27 kg?
Mass of 1 hydrogen atom = 1.67 × 10−27 kgMass of sun = 2 x 1030 kgSo the ratio of the mass of the sun to that of a H atom= (2 x 1030) / (1.67 × 10−27)= (2 / 1.67) x (1030 / 10−27)= 1.2 x 1057If the sun were entirely composed of H atoms, this would be the number of H atoms in the sun.
Why named hydrogen?
French chemist Antoine Laurent Lavoisier (1743-1794), who is considered the founder of modern chemistry, named hydrogen from the Greek words for water former.Some of this is already noticeable - hydro- meaning water, and -gen looking a lot like generator.
Will the sun ever run out of energy and or explode?
The sun will eventually run out hydrogen at its core, which is the source of energy, so it will die, but it will not explode.
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.
When does hydrogen-helium fusion and helium-carbon fusion occur in stars like our sun?
When hydrogen stocks run out
How is a sun like star able to being helium fusion?
Hydrogen stalks run out
Is it possible for the sun to become exhausted?
The expectation is that some day in the (to us) far future, most of the hydrogen in the sun will have been converted to helium (and higher weight atoms). At that point, the sun will be "exhausted" since the energy of the sun comes primarily from the fusion of the hydrogen - when there is no hydrogen left to fuse, the sun will have run out of "fuel".
When will the sun run out of hydrogen source?
In about 6 billion years. Wear a jacket, it will be cold that day :)
Where is hydrogen found on the sun?
The Sun is about 70% hydrogen.
Why is the sun going to run out?
it will go out because EVERY star has a life like humans but dont worry from 2010 in 5 billion years
In the fusion reaction on the sun what happens to hydrogen that does not convert into helium?
It just stays there waiting to be used-the sun has enough to last many billions of years and luckily for us the rate of burning has stayed fairly constant so far, but eventually it will run out of hydrogen and die.
Can the sun run out of hydrogen?
Yes. It will eventually. The sun has enough hydrogen in its core to remain as a main sequence star for about 5 billion years. After that it will alternate between fusing helium in its core and hydrogen in a shell around the core for about 2 billions. Then it will shed its outer layers and leave behind a degenerate remnant called a white dwarf.
Is the sun one forth hydrogen?
No. The sun is about 75% hydrogen.
Is hydrogen affected by the sun?
no hydrogen is not affected by the sun because hydrogen can be combined with helium it creates a fuel source but it is not affected by hydrogen by it self so no hydrogen is not affected by the sun
