Answer: Hydrogen bomb uses the process of nuclear fusion reactions.
Explanation: Nuclear fusion reactions are the reactions in which two lighter nuclei fuse together to form a heavier nuclei.
Hydrogen bomb uses the fusion of isotopes of hydrogen. These reactions require a large amount of heat to be initiated.
Reaction for the hydrogen bomb are:
Step 1 : \(_1^1H+_1^1H\rightarrow _1^2H+_{+1}^0e\)
Step 2: \(_1^1H+_1^2H\rightarrow _2^3He\)
Step 3: \(_1^1H+_2^3He\rightarrow _2^4He+_{+1}^0e\)
Overall reaction: \(4_1^1H\rightarrow _2^4He+2_{+1}^0e\)
The hydrogen bomb is also known as Thermonuclear bomb.
