One of the fusion reactions that goes on in massive stars is silicon burning , This reaction is how fusion reactions eventually reach the most stable iron/nickel region. It is also a precursor to the end of a star’s life and may lead to a supernova, if the star’s mass is sufficient. (a) Calculate the ignition temperature required for this reaction. (b) How much energy is expended in this reaction?
