Hydrogen is not changed into helium in nuclear fission. In nuclear physics, nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more lighter atomic nuclei are forced together and are fused into a heavier nucleus. In the case of the formation of hydrogen into helium, our sun does that in what is called the proton-proton reaction.
What else can I help you with?
What kind of change is hydrogen to helium?
nuclear fusion of hydrogen to form helium
How do you change hydrogen to helium?
Hydrogen can be changed into helium through the process of nuclear fusion, which occurs in the core of stars including our Sun. In this process, four hydrogen nuclei (protons) combine to form a helium nucleus, releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat.
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.
How is helium formed from hydrogen?
It's called the proton-proton cycle. It's the source of the sun's energy. Also called nuclear fusion.
Nuclear fusion on the sun changes hydrogen into?
Nuclear fusion on the sun changes hydrogen into helium. This process releases energy in the form of light and heat. It is the source of the sun's power and the reason for its brightness and warmth.
Nuclear fission where is it found?
stars.... stars are made of hydrogen, helium, and nuclear fusion
What is the hydrogen to helium reaction that is occurring inside the sun called?
nuclear fission
Which is the cause of the sun energy?
Nuclear fission is the source of the sun's energy. It is a process in which an atom of hydrogen fuses with another atom of hydrogen, releasing large amounts of energy in the process. It is quite the opposite of nuclear fission, which is the source of atomic energy.
What gas is formed by a discharge from oxygen?
Oxygen formed on earth by compound of nuclear fission of sun with helium and hydrogen.
What process changes hydrogen to helium in a star?
the process is called "nuclear fission ". that means the combining of two hydrogen atoms into one , that is helium . it generates huge amount of energy . it has not yet been done sucessfuly by humans , because it is unstable .however we have controlled nuclear fission . that is just the reverse of it
How does the sun produce all of its energy?
Looking at it very simplistically, the sun contains an enormous amount of hydrogen inside which through the nuclear fission process produces helium. The process of fission (combing of 2 hydrogen atoms into 1 helium atom) releases tremendous amount of energy. The energy is equivalent to the mass that is lost in the fission process.
Can hydrogen be broken down by fission?
No. Hydrogen is the simplest and lightest element with the nucleus consisting only of a single proton. There is no smaller nucleus you can make. The only nuclear reaction hydrogen can undergo is fusion into helium.
What kind of change is hydrogen to helium?
nuclear fusion of hydrogen to form helium
What nuclear reaction happens between hydrogen and helium in the sun?
Nuclear fusion, in which hydrogen-1 is fused into helium-4.
Why nuclear fusion is much more devastated than nuclear fission?
Not devastated, it's devastating. And it's more devastating because fusion produces more energy than fission. For example, the amount of hydrogen in a 1MT hydrogen bomb is a little more than you need to fill up a party balloon, but as nuclear fission triggers its fusion (yep, they use system like that), all that hydrogen fuses into helium, releasing a tremendous power.
What is a fission where does it take place in the sun?
Nuclear fission is the splitting of the nucleus of an element, it only happens to certain ones, most often Uranium 235 but also Plutonium 239. It does not take place in the sun at all, the sun is powered by nuclear fusion which is the joining together of hydrogen nuclei to form helium.
How do you change hydrogen to helium?
Hydrogen can be changed into helium through the process of nuclear fusion, which occurs in the core of stars including our Sun. In this process, four hydrogen nuclei (protons) combine to form a helium nucleus, releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat.
