Default List of Nuclear reactions that can take place in Universe.

I read somewhere, nuclie collide with each other to produce nuclear
reaction the same way as chemical reaction occurs.


Stellar nucleosynthesis is all over the Web, including a Nobel Prize.
Google is your friend. Pull your thumb out and look it up.

If the product has a larger binding energy than its reacting
constituents summed then product formation is thermodynamically
allowed. Doesn't mean it's gonna happen. Hexamethlprismane C6(CH3)6
is 90 kcal/mole above hexamethylbenzene, C6(CH3)6. It must be heated
to add another 33 kcal/mole before it rearranges. C-C single bond
strength is 83 kcal/mole. The molecule must be literally shattered
before it heads downhill.

Thermodyamics proposes, kinetics disposes.

Chemical Reaction

H+H - H2
O+O -O2
2H2 + O2 - 2H2O

Simmilarly Nuclear Reaction occur.

H1+H1 - He {fusion}
U238 - U235 {fission}


A little short on facts, are we?

When Universe begain everything was hydrogen. Hydrogen collided with
each other to bring Helium.


Very short on facts.

Then these elements collided to bring larger elements. Like Li, B,
Carbon etc.


Ignorant of facts.

At even higher temprature they collide to give Iron, Aluminum & Gold.


Stupid.

Can someone tell me where can I get list of all such nuclear
Reactions.


Look it up. Put new batteries into your calculator.
