Helium, The hydrogen atoms fuse to form helium, atomic number 2 and mass number 4. In the illustration, the gray spheres represent neutrons and the orange are protons. The number of protons in the nucleus of any atom determines the identity of that atom. In this case two protons indicate element #2 or helium. This fusion reaction, which occurs in the sun and other stars, also produces an additional neutron and energy.

Is a neutron smaller than an atom?

An atom is larger than a neutron; a neutron is a part of any atom except a hydrogen atom.


Why do isotopes represent the same element?

Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have differing numbers of neutrons. An example would be Cl-35 and Cl-37. Cl-37 has a larger amount of neutrons than Cl-35 has.


What element is a proton?

A single proton (not part of a larger nucleus) is the same as a positive hydrogen ion.


What does it mean of fusionable isotopes?

Fusionable isotopes refer to the larger isotopes that are usually relatively stable.

Is a nebula larger than a neutron star?

Yes, a nebula is far larger than a neutron star. A neutron star is a few miles across. A nebula is light years across.


Does an atom of plutonium processess all properties of a larger qualitity of plutonium?

Yes, it is true for all chemical elements. But attention: isotopes of an element have different nuclear properties.


Largest element in a row and largest element in a column?

The largest element in a Period (row) will be on the right of that Period (i.e. an inert gas). The largest element in a Group (column) will be at the bottom of that group. Examples; Helium is larger than Hydrogen (Period 1) Krypton is larger than Potassium (Period 3) Francium is larger than Lithium (Group 1) Ununquadium is larger than Carbon (Group 3)
