Which reaction takes place in a nuclear fission reactor?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marat540 [252]2 years ago
3 0

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.

Cu2 -&gt; Cu2+ is it getting oxidized?
KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻  →  Cu   ( copper gets reduced )

Cu  → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ (  copper gets oxidized )

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂  →   2CuI  + I₂  + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.

CO + H₂O   →  CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant  side and on product side it becomes  +4 so carbon get oxidized.

Na₂CO₃ + H₃PO₄  →  Na₂HPO₄ + CO₂ + H₂O

The oxidation state of carbon on reactant side is +4. while on product side is  also +4 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O

The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

If you had a 5 gram sample of lawrencium how much would still remain in 30 minutes
mart [117]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{4.5 g}}

Explanation:

There are eight isotopes of lawrencium, and they are all radioactive,

I will do the calculation for ²⁶²Lr, which has a half-life of 3.6 h.

Let A₀ = the original amount of lawrencium.

The amount remaining after one half-life is ½A₀.

After two half-lives, the amount remaining is ½ ×½A₀ = (½)²A₀.

After three half-lives, the amount remaining is ½ ×(½)²A₀ = (½)³A₀, and so on.

We can write a general formula for the amount remaining:

A =A₀(½)ⁿ

where n is the number of half-lives

n = \dfrac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}

Data:

A₀ = 5 g

  t = 30 min

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \text{3.6 h}

Calculations:

(a) Convert the half-life to minutes

t_{\frac{1}{2} }= \text{3.6 h} \times \dfrac{\text{60 min}}{\text{1 h}} = \text{216 min}

(b) Calculate n

n = \dfrac{30}{216} = 0.1389

(c) Calculate A

A = \text{5 g} \times \left (\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{0.1389} = \text{5 g} \times 0.9082 = \textbf{4.5 g}\\\\\text{The mass of lawrencium remaining after 30 min is $\large \boxed{\textbf{4.5 g}}$}

Molecule contains carbon, hydrogen and sulfur atoms. When a sample of 0.535g of this compound is burnt in oxygen, 1.119 g of CO2
OLga [1]

Answer:

The empirical formula is, C4H4S

Explanation:

Number of moles of carbon = 1.119 g/ 44g/mol = 0.025 moles

Mass of Carbon= 0.025 moles × 12 g/ mole = 0.3 g

Number of moles of hydrogen = 0.229/18g/mol × 2 = 0.025 moles

Mass of hydrogen = 0.025 moles × 1 = 0.025 g

Number of moles of sulphur = 0.407g/ 64 g/mol = 0.0064 moles

Mass of sulphur= 0.0064 moles ×32 = 0.2 g

Now we obtain the mole ratios by dividing through by the lowest ratio.

C- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, H- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, S- 0.0064 moles/0.0064 moles

C4H4S
