Why has nuclear fusion been difficult to develop?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alex73 [517]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

C. It is hard to recreate the extremely high temperatures and pressures found inside stars.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion occurs when atomic nuclei are forcefully combined to create a new atomic nuclei or subatomic particles. In nature, this process takes place in our Sun and other stars. Within stars, extremely high temperatures and pressures are achieved and cause nuclear fusion to occur. Humans have not yet been successful in recreating the environment necessary to mimic this process.

How many half-lives have passed when there are 3 times as much daughter isotope as parent isotope?
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

2 half lives.

Explanation:

Suppose there are 100g of parent isotope at the start.

After 1 half-life  there will be 50g of parent and 50g of daughter isotope.

After another half life there is  25 g of parent and 75g of daughter isotope.

Which of the following is the most likely sign that a chemical change has happened?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B) two liquids are mixed at room temperature and a gas forms.</em>

Explanation:

A chemical change can be described as a change which results in the formation of a new substance by the reactants. In the option B, two liquids react  to form a new product which is a gas. Hence, it is an example of chemical change.

Other options,like option D, is not a chemical change as by crushing a solid no new product is formed. Option C is also not correct because as when salt dissolves in water, no new product is made.

An electron confined in a one-dimensional box is observed, at different times, to have energies of 12 eV, 27 eV, and 48 eV. What
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

l=3.5*10^{-10}m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

1st Energy     E_1=12eV=4(3eV)

2nd Energy  E_2=27eV=9(3eV)

3rd Energy   E_3=48eV=16(3eV)

 

Generally the equation for Energy E for electron in one dimensional box at ground state E_0 is mathematically given by

  E_0=\frac{h}{8ml^2}

  E_0=\frac{h}{8ml^2}

Therefore Length a is mathematically given as

l=\sqrt{\frac{h^2}{8mE_0} }

l=\sqrt{\frac{(6.625*10^{-34})^2}{8(9.1*19^{-31}{(3eV(1.6*10^{-19}))}}

l=3.5*10^{-10}m

Choose the best tool for each scenario.
Mama L [17]

Answer:

a) Graph

b) Weight balance or gas syringe  or upside-down measuring cylinder

Explanation:

a) Identifying a trend in temperature change over time - The best tool for this scenario is to represents the temperature daily, weekly, monthly or annually on graph to interpret the fluctuation in temperature owing to local seasonal changes and weather conditions

b) Measuring the mass of a product of a chemical reaction - If the product is solid or liquid then the balance is used to measure the mass. If the product is a gas, then  gas syringe  or upside-down measuring cylinder is used.
