Why a stars collapses when iron is the only element left in the core?

When hydrogen fuses into helium, extra energy is released, causing more fusion. When helium fuses into carbon, extra energy is released, causing the reaction to continue. When each element fuses into heavier ones, energy is released - until you get to iron.When iron fuses into heavier elements, or when anything fuses into elements heavier than iron, it sucks energy OUT of the reaction, slowing it down. This is like poison to a nuclear reaction; sucking the energy OUT of a star rather than releasing it. The star dies instantly, and the collapse causes a titanic explosion in which even MORE energy is sucked out of the core of the star, as heavy elements fuse into heavier ones, until the heavy elements like Uranium and thorium are so massive that they cannot hold together and begin to fall apart._____________________________________________________________________The above answer isn't exactly right. An over simplification.Normal stars, like our sun, live just long enough to begin fusing helium into carbon. At that stage, they generate so much energy that they essentially boil off their outer layers, in a stellar nova. Eventually they boil off everything but their inner carbon core, leaving a white dwarf. But giant stars, like Betelgeuse, have enough mass to hold together. This mass, and the immense force at the stars core, provides enough energy to fuse carbon into heavier elements.Nuclear fusion is not easy. So far we have only achieved it through a two step reaction, beginning with a nuclear fission explosion. You have to put energy in to get energy out. The reason is the electromagnetic charge of the atomic nucleus. The nucleus is made of positively charged protons and neutrally charged neutrons. It takes a lot of force to overcome these charges. The bigger the nucleus, the more force required to fuse it.So, after fusing all of its available helium into carbon, the star is on borrowed time. Each stage in the star's fusion cycle is shorter than the last, simply due to the availability of the fuel. After billions of years of fusing hydrogen, millions of fusing helium, time quickly runs short. Carbon fusion last about 600-1000 years. Carbon fusion produces neon, neon fusion lasts roughly 1 year. Next is oxygen fusion, lasting maybe 6 months, producing silicon. But then, something strange happens. In every previous step of the fusion cycle, fusion produces more energy than it consumes, but iron is the other way around. Silicon fusion produces iron, but iron fusion requires too much energy, effective ending all nuclear fusion at the core. Silicon fusion lasts 3-5 days, and at that time there is not enough energy left in the core to fuse anything, and the core collapses under the weight of the stars mass. This collapse goes until protons an neutrons are crushed together so tight the the entire mass becomes pure neutrons. This stops the collapse momentarily, sending enormous shock waves through the stars outer layers, causing massive runaway nuclear reactions, blasting the star apart in a type II super nova. The runaway nuclear reactions produce elements heavier than iron through neutron accumulation. At the core, one of two things happens: Either the nuclear forces stop the collapse, forming a neutron star, or the force of the collapse overpowers the nuclear forces, and the core collapses into a black hole.On a related note, the star Betelgeuse, mentioned earlier, is a red super giant, and is believed to be rapidly supernova. In fact, given its distance of over 800 light years away, it is likely that it already has gone supernova. When it does, or rather when the supernova's light reaches earth, it will outshine even the full moon in the night sky, and be easily visible in broad daylight. The supernova will last about 6 mouths, before fading away for good. It should produce a neutron star.______________________________________The above statement "Nuclear fusion is not easy. So far we have only achieved it through a two step reaction, beginning with a nuclear fission explosion." is not completely true, referring to the "so fare we have only" part. We have achieved cold fusion by using super conducting magnets to drive hydrogen particles into each other. They reach speeds near light speed, then clash into each other. If the collision is direct enough they will fuse into helium. This produces far more energy than the energy used to crash them into each other. Once we find a way to harvest that energy we can create cold fusion reactors.________________________________________Well, just a small addition. Fusion has been accomplished with lasers also. Work at the National Ignition Facility Lawrence Livermore Laboratories, has produced small fusion reactions and they hope to create a sustained reaction at some point.


What is the difference between metal halide and mercury vapour lights?

In a metal halide light, the electricity heats a metal filament to a high temperature creating an extremely bright light. Metal ions burn off. A gas of the halide group (chlorine, bromine, iodine) reacts with the metal ions that have burned off and redeposit them on the filament. Because the filament is constantly being rebuilt, it can be brighter than a regular light bulb. Also it heats the gas to the point where the gasses give off light. So both the filament and the gasses give off light. With a mercury vapor light, mercury vapor is heated until it gives off ultraviolet light. The filament only serves to heat the mercury. It does not give off light. This light is used to excite phosphrus and other chemicals on the edge of the bulb. Those chemicals glow in the visible light spectrum. As a result, they illuminate.

What is fusion in welding?

Fusion in welding refers to the process of melting and combining two or more metal pieces to create a solid bond. This is achieved by heating the metal pieces to their melting point, allowing them to fuse together upon cooling. Fusion welding techniques include processes such as arc welding, TIG welding, MIG welding, and oxy-fuel welding.


What metal can be heated a lot without melting?

that would be steel!Tungsten has a far higher fusion temperature than steel.I believe that steel doesn't start to melt until 2400 to 2500 degrees Fahrenheit.Tungsten's fusion point is 6192 degrees Fahrenheit.


Why we use only sodium metal in sodium fusion test?

Sodium metal is used in the sodium fusion test because it has a low melting point, making it easy to work with during the testing process. Additionally, sodium forms soluble compounds with a wide range of elements, allowing for the extraction and identification of various components present in a sample.


What is the melting point equation for a substance?
