Energy is released from stars due to nuclear fusion taking place in two cycles proton-proton cycle and carbon nitrogen cycle. In these cycles four hydrogen nuclei combine to from helium nucleus. In this fusion reaction in addition to energy how many number of nutrinous are released ?

The sun is believed to be getting its energy form the fusion of four protons to form a helium nucleus and a pair of positrons. Calculate the release of energy per fusion in MeV. Mass of proton=1.007825 a.m.u. , mass of positron =0.000549 a.m.u., mass of helium nucleus =4.002603 a.m.u. Take 1a.m.u. =931MeV.

The nucleus finally formed in fusion of protons in proton-proton cycle is that of

In carbon-Nitrogen fusion cycle, protons are fused to from a helium nucleus, positrons and release some energy. The number of protons fused and the number of positrons released in this process respectively are

An known alkene with formula C_(7)H_(12) on oxidation with hot alkaline KMnO_(4) yields only the following product CH_(3)-overset(O)overset(||)C-CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)-overset(O)overset(||)C-OH What is the structure of this alkene? Strategy: C_(7)H_(12)underset((2)H_(3)O^(+))overset((1)KMnO_(4),H_(2)O,Ooverset(-)H)rarrCH_(3)overset(O)overset(||)C CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)overset(O)overset(||)C-OH Since the oxidation cleavage leads to just one product which contains the same number of carbon atoms as the reactant, the unknown alkene must have a double bond contained in a ring. The oxidative cleavage of the double bond result in the opening of the ring. To create the ring, remove the - OH group and doubly bonded O's and finally join the carboxylic acid carbon with ketone carbon by a double bond.
