What else can I help you with?
What gas giant has nuclear fusion on it?
None. Nuclear fusion occurs in stars. Jupiter, for example, has all the right ingredients to be a star but as huge as it is, it doesn't have enough mass to generate the heat and internal pressure facilitate nuclear fusion. Hope this helps :-)
Is nuclear chain reaction is called fusion?
No, a nuclear chain reaction refers to a self-sustaining series of nuclear fissions where the neutrons released in one reaction cause further fissions. Fusion, on the other hand, is the process of combining two light atomic nuclei to form a heavier nucleus, releasing large amounts of energy in the process.
Where would you find a nuclear fusion reaction occurring?
Nuclear fusion reactions occur in the core of stars, including the Sun, where high pressure and temperature conditions allow hydrogen atoms to combine and release a tremendous amount of energy. Scientists are also working on creating controlled nuclear fusion in experimental reactors on Earth as a potential source of sustainable energy.
Where has the process of nuclear fusion been occurring for over four billion years?
Nuclear fusion has been occurring in the core of the Sun for over four billion years. The intense heat and pressure at the Sun's core allow hydrogen atoms to fuse into helium, releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the process.
Where has the process of nuclear fusion been occurring?
The only place in which nuclear FUSION takes place is in stars (the sun included), and in the detonation of a hyndrogen bomb. If you are asking about nuclear FISSION (an entirely different process), restate the question.
What is the process occurring in stars to produce energy?
Nuclear fusion
Compare the role of nuclear fusion in the formation of Earth's naturally occurring elements and in the creation of synthetic elements in the laboratory?
Creation of synthetic elements in the laboratory is not based on nuclear fusion.
The hottest part of the sun?
The very center of the core, where nuclear fusion is occurring; millions of degrees.
What is the estimated amount of nuclear energy in a telephone book?
Nuclear energy can only be obtained by fission or fusion and paper won't do either.
What is events of occurring in the sun?
Nuclear fusion: mainly of hydrogen into helium. To a lesser extent there is fusion of helium into larger elements - all the way to iron.
Why is nuclear fusion important to life on earth?
Life on Earth gets its energy from the Sun, which produces the energy through nuclear fusion.

How is nuclear fusion important in stars?
That's how stars get their energy.

What process produces the largest amount of energy given off by stars?
Nuclear Fusion
