A nuclear reaction can be controlled using which of the following?

Chemistry
1 answer:
gavmur [86]2 years ago
3 0

Control rods is regarded as a substance which can control nuclear reaction and is denoted as option A.

<h3>What is Nuclear reaction?</h3>

This is a type of reaction which involves the nuclei of an atom being split or joined together and is usually accompanied with a great amount of energy emitted in the form of heat.

The two types of nuclear reaction include:

  • Nuclear fusion
  • Nuclear fission

Nuclear fusion involves the collision of two or more nuclei in other form a new atom while nuclear fission involves splitting the atoms to form other products and involves a very high amount of energy and exposure to organisms should be prevented as the radiations can alter DNA.

Control rods are commonly used in nuclear reactors and control the rate of  fission in the fuel used. This is therefore the reason why it was chosen as the most appropriate choice.

What is the pH of a solution made by mixing 30.00 mL 0.10 M HCl with 40.00 mL of 0.10 M KOH? Assume that the volumes of the solu
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

pH = 12.15

Explanation:

To determine the pH of the HCl and KOH mixture, we need to know that the reaction is  a neutralization type.

HCl  +  KOH  →  H₂O  +  KCl

We need to determine the moles of each compound

M = mmol / V (mL) → 30 mL . 0.10 M = 3 mmoles of HCl

M = mmol / V (mL) → 40 mL . 0.10 M = 4 mmoles of KOH

The base is in excess, so the HCl will completely react and we would produce the same mmoles of KCl

HCl  +  KOH  →  H₂O  +  KCl

3 m       4 m                       -

             1 m                      3 m

As the KCl is a neutral salt, it does not have any effect on the pH, so the pH will be affected, by the strong base.

1 mmol of KOH has 1 mmol of OH⁻, so the [OH⁻] will be 1 mmol / Tot volume

[OH⁻] 1 mmol / 70 mL = 0.014285 M

- log [OH⁻] = 1.85 → pH = 14 - pOH → 14 - 1.85 = 12.15

Choose the correct statement.
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

B) Cations lose electrons having a charge of positive.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, it is widely known that ions are classified as positive cations and negative anions, since the former is produced when a metal loses electrons and the latter when a nonmetal gains electrons; in such a way, the correct choice is:

B) Cations lose electrons having a charge of positive.

Best regards!

Does anyone know how to do this?
Sloan [31]

Answer

find out the number of moles and use the molar ratio (numbers in front of formulas (in this case they are all 1) to determine how many moles of each product you are going to get theoretically

n=m/M is the equation to use to get moles here

30.8 gm/32.04 g/mol=0.9612 moles of the methanol and also of the formaldehyde so

0.9612 moles of the formaldehyde x molar mass (M) 30.73 g/mol= 29.54 gm which is the theoretical yield you already have the actual yield of 24.7 gm

then divide the actual by the theoretical to get the % yield which is 83.6%

Cd(s)+2HCI(aq)---- H2(g)+CdCl2(aq). what volume in liters of 0.81m HCI solution would be needed to fully react with 32.71g Cd. a
BigorU [14]

Answer:

0.718L of 0.81M HCl are required

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

Cd(s)+2HCI(aq) → H2(g)+CdCl2(aq)

<em>1 mol of Cd reacts with 2 moles of HCl</em>

<em />

To solve this question we must, as first, find the moles of Cd. With the moles of Cd we can find the moles of HCl needed to react completely with the Cd. With the moles and the molarity we can find the volume:

<em>Moles Cd -Molar mass: 112.411g/mol-:</em>

32.71g * (1mol / 112.411g) = 0.2910 moles Cd

<em>Moles HCl:</em>

0.2910 moles Cd * (2 moles HCl / 1mol Cd) =

0.5820 moles HCl

<em>Volume:</em>

0.5820 moles HCl * (1L / 0.81moles) =

<h3>0.718L of 0.81M HCl are required</h3>
