Question

The hydrogen bomb uses the process of _____

Answer 1

Answer:-

a) Nuclear Fusion.

Explanation:-

A hydrogen bomb utilizes Nuclear fusion using the isotopes of hydrogen deuterium and tritium to cause explosion. Atom bomb uses nuclear fission.

Answer 2

Answer: Hydrogen bomb uses the process of nuclear fusion reactions.

Explanation: Nuclear fusion reactions are the reactions in which two lighter nuclei fuse together to form a heavier nuclei.

Hydrogen bomb uses the fusion of isotopes of hydrogen. These reactions require a large amount of heat to be initiated.

Reaction for the hydrogen bomb are:

Step 1 :                     $_1^1H+_1^1H\rightarrow _1^2H+_{+1}^0e$

Step 2:                     $_1^1H+_1^2H\rightarrow _2^3He$

Step 3:                    $_1^1H+_2^3He\rightarrow _2^4He+_{+1}^0e$

Overall reaction:    $4_1^1H\rightarrow _2^4He+2_{+1}^0e$

The hydrogen bomb is also known as Thermonuclear bomb.
