Hydrogen atoms are fusing into helium atoms in the Sun's core through the process of nuclear fusion. This fusion reaction releases a tremendous amount of energy that powers the Sun and produces light and heat.
No, a mole of carbon atoms has the same number of atoms as a mole of helium atoms (Avogadro's number, which is about 6.022 x 10^23 atoms). The difference lies in their atomic masses, as carbon atoms are heavier than helium atoms.
When hydrogen atoms fuse into helium atoms, a small amount of mass from the hydrogen is converted into a large amount of energy in accordance with Einstein's equation E=mc^2. This energy release results from the difference in mass between the initial hydrogen atoms and the resulting helium atoms.
No, helium is not a hydrocarbon. Helium is a noble gas and is chemically inert, meaning it does not readily react with other elements to form compounds like hydrocarbons which contain carbon and hydrogen atoms.
A Lewis diagram for ethylene (CH₂CH₂) represents the bonding and electron arrangement in the molecule. In this diagram, each carbon atom is depicted with four valence electrons, forming a double bond between the two carbon atoms, and each carbon is also bonded to two hydrogen atoms. The double bond is shown as two lines between the carbon atoms, while the hydrogen atoms are represented with single lines connecting them to the carbon atoms. Overall, the Lewis structure illustrates the sharing of electrons that forms the covalent bonds in the molecule.
Helium atoms
Yes it does. It produces helium by fusing hydrogen
The fusing of hydrogen atoms into helium.
The sun fuses hydrogen atoms to produce helium atoms in its core through a process called nuclear fusion. This process generates a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat, which sustains life on Earth.
Hydrogen atoms are fusing into helium atoms in the Sun's core through the process of nuclear fusion. This fusion reaction releases a tremendous amount of energy that powers the Sun and produces light and heat.
Mass of 1 Helium atom is 4 amu and mass of 1 Carbon atom is 12 amu. So there are 10 helium atoms and 10 carbon atoms
Our sun gets energy from fusing hydrogen atoms with neutrons to form helium atoms.
No, a mole of carbon atoms has the same number of atoms as a mole of helium atoms (Avogadro's number, which is about 6.022 x 10^23 atoms). The difference lies in their atomic masses, as carbon atoms are heavier than helium atoms.
It takes three helium atoms to create one carbon atom through nuclear fusion in stars.
No. Standard sized young Stars are made up of hydrogen atoms fusing themselves into helium atoms and giving off lots of Energy.

Actually fusing carbon, such as in a star will create one of several type of elements. In the vast majority of stars carbon is not fused at all, but depending on the star's mass carbon may fuse into neon, oxygen, magnesium, among a couple others. This happens in specific type of stars, at specific times in their lives. Fusing is different from chemical reactions. There are no chemical reactions that can make elements, but with nuclear transmutation you can do it. For example, in a star hydrogen is fused into helium, and sometimes helium into carbon.
