Question

What are the three steps of the proton proton chain?

Answer 1

the proton-proton chain requires the addition of another neutron to the helium-3- thereby making normal helium-4. this final step can proceed in several different ways, but the most common is through a collision of two helium-3 nuclei.

Answer 2

The three steps of the proton-proton chain are:

• Proton- proton chain is the reaction of curing in sun and stars which causes the conversion of hydrogen to helium and release of energy.
• The first step is the attack of two hydrogen two from deuterium.
• In the second step, the deuterium is crashed with a proton to form helium of mass number 3 and repeat the steps to get 2 helium of mass 3.
• The third step is crashing between two helium of mass 3 and the product is one helium of mass number 4 and two protons.
