The reaction that takes place in a nuclear fission reactor is as follows: 235/92 U + 1/0n 94/36Kr + 139/56 Ba + 3/0n.

<h3>What is a nuclear fission reactor?</h3>

A nuclear fission reactor is the place where nuclear chain reactions occur that produce energy by fission.

Nuclear fission is the nuclear reaction in which a large nucleus splits into smaller ones with the simultaneous release of energy.

Therefore, the option that involves the splitting of atoms into smaller ones is as follows: 235/92 U + 1/0n 94/36Kr + 139/56 Ba + 3/0n.

An important reaction that takes place in a blast furnace during the production of iron is the formation of iron metal and CO2 f

ladessa [460]

Answer: Mass of $Fe_2O_3$ required to form 930 kg of iron is 1328 kg

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For iron:

Given mass of iron = 930 kg = 930000 g (1kg=1000g)

Molar mass of iron = 56 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of iron}=\frac{930000g}{56g/mol}=16607mol$

The chemical equation for the production of iron follows:

$Fe_2O_3+3CO\rightarrow 2Fe+3CO_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of iron are produced by = 1 mole of $Fe_2O_3$

So, 16607 moles of iron will be produced by = $\frac{1}{2}\times 16607=8303moles$ of $Fe_2O_3$

Now, calculating the mass of $Fe_2O_3$ from equation 1, we get:

Mass of $Fe_2O_3$ = $moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=8303\times 160=1328480g=1328kg$

Thus mass of $Fe_2O_3$ required to form 930 kg of iron is 1328 kg

All human body systems works together m. What would happen to someone if one of their systems becomes inefficient?

Reil [10]

They would most likely get sick. Or suffer from organ failure. When one part of your body doesn’t work it causes a weakness, making you more susceptible to sicknesses.

Waves transport water in the deep ocean toward the coastlines. True or false

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Most likely true

Explanation:

because the speed of all ocean waves is controlled by gravity, wavelength, and water depth. ... Waves moving through water deeper than half their wavelength are known as deep-water waves. On the other hand, the orbits of water molecules in waves moving through shallow water are flattened by the proximity of the sea surface bottom.
