Primarily carbon (atomic number 6), but there are some nuclear processes that yield nitrogen (7) and oxygen (8).

What is the solar process that results in the production of energy?

The solar process that results in the production of energy is called nuclear fusion. In the core of the sun, hydrogen atoms fuse together to form helium, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This energy is then radiated out from the sun in the form of sunlight.


What type of energy is the sun's energy source?

hydrogen fusion


Will helium 3 allow us to use nuclear fusion for power?

On earth, for power production, the most likely fuel source will be hydrogen isotopes, not helium 3


Which nuclear fusion cycle is the next one to begin after helium fusion ends in a massive star?

The next nuclear fusion cycle after helium fusion in a massive star is carbon fusion. This process involves fusing helium nuclei to form carbon. Carbon fusion typically occurs in the core of a massive star after helium fusion is completed.


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 happens after the hydrogen transform into helium?

During nuclear fusion, hydrogen atoms combine to form helium, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This energy is what powers the sun and other stars, contributing to light and heat production. After hydrogen transforms into helium, other elements can be formed through further fusion reactions in the star's core.


What does deuterium and tritium make?

Deuterium and tritium can undergo nuclear fusion to produce helium-4 and a neutron. This reaction is the basis for the energy production in hydrogen bombs and is a potential energy source for fusion reactors.


What element is produced by fusion in the interior of sun?

Helium is produced by fusion in the interior of the Sun.


When does hydrogen-helium fusion and helium-carbon fusion occur in stars like our sun?

When hydrogen stocks run out


When does helium fusion begin in a star?

Hydrogen undergoes nuclear fusion to form helium at a temperature of 107 K


Which gas is produced by nuclear fusion?

The primary gas produced by nuclear fusion is helium. In the Sun, hydrogen nuclei fuse to form helium nuclei, releasing large amounts of energy in the process. Helium is a byproduct of this fusion reaction.


Where did helium origianate from?

Helium originated from suns, where the fusion of hydrogen atoms forms the helium.
