Question

When two hydrogen nuclei combine to form one helium nucleus, nuclear fusion has taken place.. . True or False

Answer 1

True.

Nuclear Fusion is a reaction process that involves combination of smaller nuclei to form larger one.

Answer 2

Answer: The given statement is true.

Explanation:

When two small nuclei combine together and result in the formation of a larger nuclei then this process is known as nuclear fusion.

For example, $^{2}_{1}H + ^{3}_{1}H \rightarrow ^{4}_{2}He + ^{1}_{0}n$

Therefore, the statement when two hydrogen nuclei combine to form one helium nucleus, nuclear fusion has taken place, is true.
