<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option B which is fusion occurs in the sun.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Fusion in nuclear physics is an reaction in which two or more nuclei fuse to form another atom and due to mass conservation they also release energy.
  • This reaction is common in sun and provides energy to sun.
  • In sun two hydrogen atoms fuse to for a helium nuclei and giving some amount of energy.
  • In sun there are 620 million metric tons of hydrogen fuse together each second.

What mass of water is formed when 16g of hydrogen react with excess oxygen​
artcher [175]

Hello!

To start off, we must look at atomic masses. Atoms all have different weights, so we must first find hydrogen and oxygen's atomic masses.

Oxygen: 16.00 amu

Hydrogen: 1.01 amu

Now, moving on to the weight of water itself. Water has the formula of H20, with two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen. Therefore, <u>add up the amus to get the weight of one molecule of water.</u>

1.01 + 1.01 + 16.00 = 18.02 amu

Now, to see the ratio of each component. Since hydrogen weighs a total of 2.02 amu (1.01 + 1.01) in the entire atom, we can state that hydrogen makes up about 0.112 of the weight of water. Now apply that ratio to 16 g, and solve.

0.112x = 16

142.857143 = x

So therefore, about 143 grams of water are made when 16g of hydrogen reacts with excess oxygen.

Hope this helps!
