∙ 8y agoNormal "main sequence" stars fuse hydrogen into helium during most of the star's life. The core of a star gets so hot that the hydrogen atoms begin to fuse together. As hydrogen only has 1 proton when if fuses with another hydrogen atom it has 2 protons so has become helium.

Hydrogen is believed to be the first chemical element created in the universe, formed shortly after the Big Bang. It is the most abundant element in the universe and serves as the building block for all other elements.
Stars are referred to as atomic furnaces because they generate energy through nuclear fusion in their cores. During this process, hydrogen atoms fuse together to form helium, releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat. This continual fusion process is what powers the luminosity and heat emitted by stars.
Astronomers believe that hydrogen is the primordial element in the universe because it is the most abundant element and simple in structure. Hydrogen was the first element formed after the Big Bang and is a key component in the formation of stars and galaxies. Observations of the cosmic microwave background radiation also support the idea that hydrogen is the oldest element in the universe.
Fusing hydrogen atoms into heavier elements produces helium and releases a large amount of energy in the form of heat and light. This process, known as nuclear fusion, occurs in the core of stars like our sun and is responsible for the sun's energy output.
No, carbon was not the first atom created after the Big Bang. The first atoms that formed were hydrogen and helium, and heavier elements like carbon were produced later through processes like stellar nucleosynthesis in the cores of stars.
Helium is heavier than hydrogen. Hydrogen is the lightest and simplest element in the periodic table, while helium is the second lightest element.
Carbon
No - the lightest element Hydrogen has three known isotopes
You cant. It is an element and thus making it heavier would mean it is no longer hydrogen. However, heavy hydrogen exists and is called deuterium and is made in nuclear reactors.
Hydrogen is believed to be the first chemical element created in the universe, formed shortly after the Big Bang. It is the most abundant element in the universe and serves as the building block for all other elements.
Hydrogen is the most commonly observed element in the universe and is likely contained in every planet.
All elements except hydrogen and helium are heavier than hydrogen. This includes elements such as carbon, oxygen, gold, and uranium.
Right now, hydrogen is fusing into hydrogen. As the hydrogen gets used up, helium will begin fusing into the next heavier element. When the helium is about used up, the next heavier element will begin fusing into the next . . . . well, keep on going until you get iron as the result of fusing. The Sun has not enough pressure and heat to fuse iron into anything heavier, and the Sun will blossom out into a red giant. Of course, this is billions of years from now . . .
Yes, gravity plays a role in pulling atoms together in stars to form heavier elements through nuclear fusion. In the intense pressure and temperature conditions of a star's core, lighter elements like hydrogen fuse together to form heavier elements like helium, carbon, and oxygen.
Elements are formed from hydrogen through processes like nuclear fusion in stars. During nuclear fusion, immense heat and pressure cause hydrogen atoms to fuse together to form heavier elements like helium, followed by successive fusion reactions that create progressively heavier elements. This process is responsible for the creation of elements up to iron in the core of stars.
Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the interstellar medium, making up about 90% of its mass. Helium is the second most abundant element in the interstellar medium, with trace amounts of heavier elements such as carbon, oxygen, and others.
Hydrogen is considered the primordial element in the universe because it is the most abundant element, making up about 75% of the universe's elemental mass. It is thought to have been the first element to form after the Big Bang, leading to the creation of stars and eventually heavier elements through nuclear fusion processes.
