H+1H - ?H+e+ + v + energy
O 6(3H) +21_e) - He +24H) + energy + 2u
{H+1H He + energy
O
He He He + 1H+1H + energy

Which is the second step of the fusion process? O H+1H - ?H+e+ + v + energy O 6(3H-example-1

Answer:

The correct option is;


_(1)^(2)\textrm{He} + _(1)^(1)\textrm{H} \rightarrow _(3)^(2)\textrm{He} + energy

Step-by-step explanation:

The second step of the fusion process is the reaction (combination) where a Deuterium combines with a hydrogen to produce one helium 3, 3He, nucleus and a energy photon as follows;


_(1)^(2)\textrm{He} + _(1)^(1)\textrm{H} \rightarrow _(3)^(2)\textrm{He} +\gamma \ (energy)

After which the produced Helium-3 combines to form the Helium nucleus an emit 2 protons

Steps 1 and 2 are take place two times (producing 26 MeV energy) before the step three (the combination of the formed helium-3) takes occurs.
