Answer : The given statement is True.

Explanation -

Nuclear fusion is a thermonuclear reaction in which light stable nuclei combine with each other in order to form a heavy stable nucleus with the release of large amount of energy.

In case of stars, four hydrogen nuclei combine with each other to form a helium nucleus with a release of 26 Mev per cycle.

Thus, nuclear fusion occurs in stars is true statement.

How many grams of oxygen (O2), x, are needed to react with the 700 g of iron to produce 1000 g of iron (III) oxide, Fe2O3?
Murljashka [212]

As we know that, molecular mass of ferric oxide, Fe2O3, is 159.69 grams.
Out of which, iron contributes 111.69 g (2 X 55.845 g) and oxygen contributes
48 g (3 X 16 g).   
 Each gram of iron (III) oxide contains 111.69/159.69 g of iron and 48/159.69
g of oxygen.   
 To produce 1000 g iron (III) oxide we need,    
 Iron = 111.69*1000/159.69 = 699.42 g   
 Oxygen = 48*1000/159.69 = 300.58 g

What is mean by the net displacement in transverse wave
natta225 [31]
In a transverse wave, the particles are disturbed in a direction perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Thus, waves travel through a medium with no net displacement of the distance between two successive particles of wave that are in wavelength.
