What are stars composed of?
Answered by GPT 3.5
Stars are composed primarily of hydrogen and helium. These are the two lightest and most abundant elements in the universe. Hydrogen makes up about 74% of the mass of an average star, while helium accounts for around 24%. The remaining 2% consists of trace amounts of heavier elements such as carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and others. These elements play a crucial role in the processes that occur within stars, including nuclear fusion, which powers the star and enables it to generate heat and light.
