A Nebula is a massive cloud of dust, gas and debris (sometimes left over from a star that has died in a supernova explosion) drifting in interstellar space.
It is from these nebula that stars are thought to form. Once the stars "come to life" this is thought to kick start the formation of other stars and planets from the remaining gas, dust, rock, metal in the dust cloud.

∙ 10y agoNebulae often form star-forming regions, such as in the Eagle Nebula. This nebula is depicted in one of NASA's most famous images, the "Pillars of Creation". In these regions the formations of gas, dust and other materials "clump" together to form larger masses, which attract further matter, and eventually will become big enough to form stars. The remaining materials are then believed to form planets, and other planetary system objects. Star formation is crucial to the existence of life in the universe

Is a nebula a physical change or a chemical change?
Neither, a nebula is not a change at all.
Is argon non reactive?
It is very inert. However, under extreme conditions it can be made to react - to form compounds. Argon hydride was detected in the Crab Nebula in 2010.
Where would you least expect to find an ionization nebula?
Within regions of active star formation; near hot stars. The colorful glowing blob is a result of the surrounding gas absorbing ultraviolet photons from the hot stars.
Why are the structural and molecular formula used in organic chemistry?
the structural and molecualar formual is c"2+ b"2 ef, it is used to determaine how some organisms develop using bhavikas theory of evolvary evolution, by reversing the cenrte nucleus of a DNA strand within the photon matrixual nebula.
If a star becomes a red gaint when all its hydrogen is used up and later becomes a nebula How can a nebula star form without hydrogen?
The key to this is that NO star uses up ALL of its hydrogen. In fact, they only use up the Hydrogen in their cores, where pressure and temperature are highest. In the case of a red giant, the star is at the stage of burning Helium into Beryllium, Boron and Carbon, which requires much more heat (the heat is "borrowed" from the previous collapsing of the star at the end of the main sequence phase) and continues with a much denser core. When a star expands into a red giant, it blows some of its Hydrogen mass into space. Later, when it simply cannot sustain any fusion reactions in its core, it still contains a considerable amount of hydrogen in the outermost layers, and the subsequent collapse causes a rebound (supernova) that blows about 50% of the original star's mass - most of the hydrogen plus some of the heavier elements into space. When that blown away material collides with a large gas cloud in space which is mostly hydrogen, and compresses that cloud enough that the material can then collapse and form another new star.
What is the difference between a nebula and a crab nebula?
The Crab Nebula is a nebula.

What is the difference between a planetery nebula and a nebula?
A cloud in outer space consisting of gas or dust and planetry nebula is one of the types also called ring nebula or A planetary nebula is an emission nebula consisting of a glowing shell of gas

Emission nebula glow and reflection nebula reflect the light form other stars
