Why is a fusion reaction difficult to perform?

a
The nuclei are set up far from each other
b
The attraction between the nuclei
c
Sun’s energy is not sufficient
d
Repulsion between the nuclei

detailed solution

Correct option is D

For the fusion reaction to occur, the light nuclei are brought closer to each other, at a distance of about 10-14 m. This is only possible at a very high temperature to counter the repulsive force between the two nuclei. Due to this reason, the fusion reaction is difficult to perform.
