Question

hey mates what is fusion in chemistry​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Fusion, another term for melting, the physical process of a substance undergoing a phase transition from a solid into a liquid. Nuclear fusion, the process by which multiple atomic nuclei join together to form a heavier nucleus.

Fusion is the combination of small atoms. In the process some of the mass is lost, becoming energy, through E = MC^2. The mass of these atoms might be:

1 + 1 = 1.95

See that lost 0.05? That is missing mass, which has become energy. The lost mass is known as the binding energy; it is the glue that holds the nucleus together.

Fusion is common for atoms less massive then iron, while fission is common in atoms larger then iron. This is shown by the “energy per nucleon”

Answer 2

Fusion means combining lighter atomic nuclei to form a heavier nucleus. ... The reverse reaction, in which a heavy nucleus splits into lighter nuclei, is called nuclear fission. Fusion may refer to the phase transition from a solid to a light via melting.
