Does hydrogen fusion occur in the corona?

Hydrogen fusion does not occur in the corona of the sun. Fusion reactions occur in the sun's core where conditions are hot and dense enough for hydrogen nuclei to combine to form helium, releasing energy in the process. The corona is cooler and less dense than the core, so fusion cannot take place there.


List three conditions that must exist for the continuous fusion of hydrogen to occur?

High temperature, high pressure, and the presence of hydrogen isotopes like deuterium and tritium are necessary conditions for the continuous fusion of hydrogen to occur in a controlled manner.


What is the order in which elements undergo fusion on the sun?

In the core of the Sun, hydrogen atoms fuse to form helium in a process known as hydrogen fusion. This is the primary fusion process occurring in the Sun. As the core hydrogen is depleted, helium fusion into heavier elements like carbon and oxygen will occur in later stages of the Sun's evolution.


How does nuclear fusion generate the suns energy?

Nuclear fusion in the sun occurs when hydrogen atoms combine to form helium atoms. This process releases large amounts of energy in the form of photons. The intense pressure and temperature in the sun's core create the conditions necessary for nuclear fusion to occur.


Does fusion reaction occur in an atomic bomb?

Yes, fusion reactions occur in a hydrogen bomb, which is a type of nuclear bomb. The high temperatures and pressures generated by the fission reaction in the bomb can trigger fusion reactions between hydrogen isotopes. This fusion reaction releases a large amount of energy, contributing to the destructive power of the bomb.

Where does hydrogen fusion occur when there is no hydrogen left in the core of a star?

If there is no hydrogen left at the core of star then hydrogen fusion cannot occur. What happens in the core of a star before that happens is that helium begins to fuse, and then the other elements going up the periodic table until carbon. And then if the star explodes into a supernova, traces of the higher elements are fused as well.


Where does fusion of hydrogen to helium most commonly occur?

In stars. As far as I know this is the only place.
