Inside the core of nuclear fusion reactor, eventually the gas changes to plasma. It is due to

A

strong coulomb forces acting between deuterons

B

strong magnetic forces acting between protons

C

the high temperature

D

attractive coulomb forces between deuterons and electrons

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
At very high temperature, all electrons from the atoms are detached and the state is called plasma. Hence option (c) is correct.
