What is the chemical makeup of the sun?
The sun is primarily made up of hydrogen (about 74) and helium (about 24), with small amounts of other elements like oxygen, carbon, neon, and iron.
All the iron molecules that are in your body were originally created by?
nuclear fusion in a massive star that ended its life in a supernova explosion.
What is a large ball of gas that emits energy produced by nuclear reactions in its interior?
when the supply of carbon is used up, other fusion reactions occur, until the core is filled with iron atom. +++ It is called a "star" - and it starts as hydrogen fusing to helium long before it forms carbon or iron. Iron is the end-product of medium-sized stars like our Sun.
Why does an iron roof feel much hotter than a light-colored tile roof on a hot day?
An iron roof feels hotter than a light-colored tile roof on a hot day because iron has a higher thermal conductivity, meaning it can transfer heat more easily than the ceramic tiles. This results in the iron roof absorbing and retaining more heat from the sun, making it feel hotter to the touch compared to the lighter-colored tiles which reflect more sunlight.
What is the plural of iron?
The plural of iron is "irons."
Does the sun contain iron?
Yes, the sun does contain iron. Iron is one of the most abundant elements in the sun, making up about 0.1% of its total mass. Iron plays a crucial role in the sun's fusion process, helping to produce energy through nuclear reactions.
Is molten iron hotter than the sun?
No. Iron melts at 1,538 degrees Celsius. The surface of the sun is at 5,500 degress Celsius, at which temperature iron is a gas.
An fact about iron?
it came from the sun.
What evidence do you have that the sun contains the element iron?
One piece of evidence that the sun contains iron is the absorption lines in its spectrum that match the wavelengths associated with iron atoms. Additionally, studies of the sun's composition through spectroscopy and helioseismology have identified iron as one of the elements present in the sun's core and atmosphere.
Is iron likely to be formed in the sun?
Iron is not formed in the Sun through nuclear fusion. Iron is the element with the highest nuclear binding energy per nucleon, making it less energetically favorable for fusion reactions to produce iron in the Sun. Iron is typically formed in the later stages of a massive star's life during a supernova explosion.
How many times greater than the mass of the sun would a mole of paperclips?
A mole of iron (iron paper clips) Is nothing compared with the Sun.
Does magnetic compass work on the sun?
No, the sun does not have an iron core to generate magnetic poles
Can a rocket full of iron destroy the sun?
in short, no!
Is it possible for a comet with iron in it to pass through the sun's atmosphere and destroy it and how long would it take for the sun to be destroyed by it?
A comet would not have enough iron to affect the Sun in any measurable way. Even a Jupiter-sized planet made of iron would not stop solar activity. The production of iron by a star is an endothermic fusion reaction. Any mass of iron nearing the Sun would be vaporized, and whatever entered the solar interior would circulate for many hundreds of years before any could reach the core.
The sun is capable of fusing elements up to which one?
Iron.
Is iron a compound mixture element?
Iron is an element, and is the heaviest element that may be made by fusion in a Star such as our Sun.
Is iron compound mixture elements?
Iron is an element, and is the heaviest element that may be made by fusion in a Star such as our Sun.
