Procedure
1. Read the procedure and safety information, and complete the lab form.
2. Make a set of element cards based on fictitious elements provided in the table below.
3. Organize the cards by increasing atomic mass, and start placing them in a 4 3 grid.
4. Place each card based on its properties, and leave gaps where necessary. Make a table
reflecting your arrangement of cards.

answer is: nuclear fusion produces elements that are heavier than helium.

nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing energy.  

for example, fusion of hydrogen atoms at the sun.  

this fusion nuclear reaction is in the inner core of the sun and hydrogen (atomic number 1) is conveted into helium (atomic number 2).  

the inner core is the central region of the sun and all solar energy is produced in the core by nuclear fusion.
