Nuclear fusion requires an environment of extreme energy, or, said another way, extreme heat. Temperatures are so high that any matter there exists as plasma. In addition to the extreme heat, stars use extreme gravity to compress the plasma to facilitate continuous fusion. In our attempts to duplicate this process, we have to contain the plasma, and the best we can do is some kind of magnetic cage like the tokamak.

What environmental conditions common to most stars including your sun appear to be necessary in order for fusion reactions to take place?

Neclear Fusion because stars are powered by that, even our sun


What environmental conditions common to most stars including our sun appear to be necessary in order for fusion reactions to take place?

The onset of nuclear fusion in the core of a star occurs when the the hydrogen in the core reaches a temperature of about 10 million degrees Kelvin. The gravitational force needed to achieve this requires a stellar mass of at least 8.3% of the mass of Earth's Sun.


What are some chemical reactions?

some chemical reactions take place when a chemical is added to a metal. sometimes the chemicl turns cloudy, it may fizz or a coat of black may appear on the piece of metal. hope this helps! :)


Why does a system at equilibrium appear on a microscopic level as if no change is taking place?

At equilibrium, the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal, leading to no net change in concentrations of reactants or products. While individual molecules are continuously reacting, the overall concentrations remain constant, making it appear as if no change is occurring on a macroscopic level.


What conditions if any are necessary for sink hole to happen?

Rain water sinking into limestone bedrock will slowly dissolve the limestone and, over many centuries, form potholes and caverns. In time, the cavern's ceiling will become too thin to support the ground above. A sink hole will appear when the cavern's roof collaspes.

Why do my dog's eyes look red in light?

Your dog's eyes may appear red in light due to the reflection of blood vessels in the eye, which is a normal occurrence in many animals, including humans. This reflection can be more noticeable in certain lighting conditions, causing the eyes to appear red.


Why are nitrogen and oxygen different colors?

Nitrogen and oxygen are colorless gases in their natural state. However, they can appear to have different colors when they are involved in certain chemical reactions or when they are viewed under specific conditions. For example, nitrogen can appear to have a blue-violet glow in an electrical discharge, while oxygen can exhibit a light blue color when it interacts with other substances.
