Answer:

<h2><em><u>URANIUM</u></em><em><u> </u></em></h2>

Explanation:

What is the source of energy in nuclear power plants?

<em><u>Uranium</u></em> is the fuel most widely used by nuclear plants for nuclear fission. <u>Uranium</u> is considered a nonrenewable energy source, even though it is a common metal found in rocks worldwide. Nuclear power plants use a certain kind of uranium, referred to as U-235, for fuel because its atoms are easily split apart.

How many moles of electrons must be transferred to plate out 110 g of manganese (MW ~ 55g/mol) from a solution of permanganate (
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

14 mol e⁻

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced half-reaction for the reduction of permanganate to manganese

8 H⁺(aq) + 7 e⁻ + MnO₄⁻(aq) ⇒ Mn(s) + 4 H₂O(l)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 110 g of manganese

The molar mass of Mn is 55 g/mol.

110 g × 1 mol/55 g = 2 mol

Step 3: Calculate the number of moles of electrons needed to produce 2 moles of Mn

According to the half-reaction, 7 moles of electrons are required to produce 1 mole of Mn.

2 mol Mn × 7 mol e⁻/1 mol Mn = 14 mol e⁻

How does increasing temperature increase the number of reactions?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Increasing the temperature increases reaction rates because of the disproportionately large increase in the number of high energy collisions. It is only these collisions (possessing at least the activation energy for the reaction) which result in a reaction

How many milliliters of 0.100 m naoh are required to neutralize 9.00 ml of 0.0500 m hcl?
BabaBlast [244]
V  ( NaOH ) = mL ?

M ( NaOH ) = 0.100 M

V ( HCl ) = 9.00 mL / 1000 => 0.009 L

M ( HCl ) = 0.0500 M

number of moles HCl:

n = M x V

n = 0.009 x 0.0500 => 0.00045 moles HCl

mole ratio:

<span>HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O
</span>
 1 mole HCl ---------------- 1 mole NaOH
 0.00045 moles HCl ----- ??

0.00045 x 1 / 1 => 0.00045 moles of NaOH

M = n / V

0.100 = 0.00045 / V

V = 0.00045 / 0.100

V = 0.0045 L

1 L ------------ 1000 mL
0.0045 L ----- ??

0.0045 x 1000 / 1 => 4.5 mL of NaOH
