Question

which are products of nuclear fusion? check all that apply.
energy
helium gas
high temperatures
hydrogen gas
low pressure

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Nuclear fusion is a process where light atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus. In the case of hydrogen - to - helium fusion (a common type), hydrogen nuclei (protons) fuse. During this process, a large amount of energy is released. The reaction can be represented as \(4_{1}^{1}H
ightarrow_{2}^{4}He + 2_{+1}^{0}e+\text{energy}\). High temperatures are a requirement (a condition) for nuclear fusion to occur, not a product. Hydrogen gas is a reactant (input) for hydrogen - to - helium fusion, not a product. Low pressure is not a product of nuclear fusion; in fact, high pressure (along with high temperature) is needed to overcome the Coulomb repulsion between positively charged nuclei.

Answer:

energy, helium gas
