The temperature of a star is 3 × 108 K. Can nuclear fusion occur at that star ? If yes which cycle is more probable : carbon-nitrogen cycle or proton-proton cycle ? |

Answer» Nuclear fusion is possible at the star, because it can take place at or above temperature 2 × 107 K. Above 2 × 107 K carbon-nitrogen cycle is more probable, therefore at the star the probability of carbon-nitrogen cycle is greater. |
