Is Hydrogen Burning in Stars Capable of Breaking Bonds in Hydrocarbons?

[naders2]

Hydrogen burning in a star breaks chemical bonds and rearranges atoms in all hydrocarbon fuels.True or false?

Thanks! =)

What kind of hydrogen 'burning' do you think is going on in a star? Is it the same as burning a hydrocarbon in air?

I have no idea. That was just a true/false question on our homework assignment, yet I don't even fully understand what it implies.

Read http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Sciences/EarthScience/Geology/OilandGas/FormationHydrocarbon/HowOilandGas/HowOilandGas.htm" and tell me if you think the atoms of hydrocarbons are broken and rearranged by the action of a star burning hydrogen.
