Choose the statement about nuclear fusion that is always correct? a) very little energy is released in fusion processes. b) due to its instability, 56fe readily undergoes fusion. c) nuclear fusion is an energetically favorable process for lighter atoms. d) in fusion reactions, a proton and an electron combine to create a neutron. edit: the answer is (c)

The correct answer is C.
Nuclear fusion is an energetically favorable process for lighter atoms.
 The proportion of hydrogen which is converted to energy in nuclear fusion is 0.68 percent or 0.7 percent.
Nuclear fusion produces energy which is from matter and nuclear fusion produces matter from energy.
The nuclear energy which splits large atom into small ones and then gives out energy.
Some matter is being lost and being converted to energy by Einstein's Δm×C².
Nuclear energy fusion makes larger elements and takes smaller elements.
For fusion to occur then energy must be converted to mass.
