Which statement below is NOT true of fission?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Rudik [331]2 years ago
8 0

The statement that is NOT true of fission is B. slow neutrons are fired at a large nucleus.

<h3>What is Nuclear fission</h3>

This is the splitting of large nuclei to smaller ones. It could be a natural or spontaneous dissociation by radioactive decay, or can be initiated in   in a laboratory under required conditions. It involves;

  • Splitting of large nuclei to two smaller ones
  • Release of large amount of energy
  • Neutrons released can be used to initiate chain reactions

Hence, the statement that is not true about fission is that slow neutrons are fired at a large nucleus.

The Ka for acetic acid (HC2H3O2) is 1.80 x 10-5 . Determine the pH of a 0.0500mol/L acetic acid solution.
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

pH = 3.02

Explanation:

Acetic Acid is a weak acid (HOAc) that ionizes only ~1.5% as follows:

HOAc ⇄ H⁺ + OAc⁻.

In pure water the hydronium ion concentration [H⁺] equals the acetate ion concentration [OAc⁻] and can be determined* using the formula [H⁺] = [OAc⁻] = SqrRt(Ka·[acid]) = SqrRt(1.8x10⁻⁵ x 0.0500)M = 9.5x10⁻⁴M.

By definition, pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(9.5x10⁻⁴) = 3.02

______________________________________________________

*This formula can be used to determine the [H⁺] & [Anion⁻] concentrations for any weak acid in pure water given its Ka-value and the molar concentration of acid in solution.

Can anyone explain dipoles in chemistry?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A dipole refers to a bond in which its two ends have opposite charges. A dipole results from a large difference in electronegativity between two atoms in a bond.

For instance, consider the bond between hydrogen and chlorine in HCl. The electronegativity of hydrogen is 2.2 while that of chlorine is 3.16. The significant electronegativity difference between the two atoms leads to a charge separation.

A partial positive charge appears on the atom that is less electronegative (hydrogen) while a negative charge appears on the more electronegative atom (chlorine).

This charge separation occurs because the shared electrons of the bond are more closely attracted to chlorine making it partially negative compared to hydrogen. A dipole moment now exists in the H-Cl bond hence the molecule is said to have a dipole.
