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.

Use standard enthalpies of formation to calculate Δ H ∘ rxn for each reaction. MISSED THIS? Read Section 7.9; Watch KCV 7.9, IWE
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Standard Heat of Reaction 1 = -136.2 kJ/mol

Standard Heat of Reaction 2 = -41.166 kJ/mol

Standard Heat of Reaction 3 = -136.07 kJ/mol

Standard Heat of Reaction 4 = 279.448kJ/mol

Explanation:

C₂H₄ (g) + H₂ (g) → C₂H₆ (g)

CO (g) + H₂O (g) → H₂ (g) + CO₂ (g)

3NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → 2HNO₃ (aq) + NO (g)

Cr₂O₃ (s) + 3CO (g) → 2Cr (s) + 3CO₂ (g)

The required standard heat of formation for each of the reactants and product above, as obtained from literature is listed below.

C₂H₄ (g), 52.5 kJ/mol

H₂ (g), 0 kJ/mol

C₂H₆ (g), -83.7 kJ/mol

CO (g), -110.525 kJ/mol

H₂O (g), -241.818 kJ/mol

H₂ (g), 0 kJ/mol

CO₂ (g), -393.509 kJ/mol

NO₂ (g), 33.2 kJ/mol

H₂O (l), -285.8 kJ/mol

HNO₃ (aq), -206.28 kJ/mol

NO (g), 90.29 kJ/mol

Cr₂O₃ (s), -1128.4 kJ/mol

CO (g), -110.525 kJ/mol

Cr (s), 0 kJ/mol

CO₂ (g), -393.509 kJ/mol

Note that

ΔH∘(rxn) = ΔH∘(products) - ΔH∘(reactants)

C₂H₄ (g) + H₂ (g) → C₂H₆ (g)

ΔH∘(rxn) = ΔH∘(products) - ΔH∘(reactants)

ΔH∘(products) = (1×-83.7) = -83.7 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(reactants) = (1×52.5) + (1×0) = 52.5 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(rxn) = -83.7 - 52.5 = -136.2 kJ/mol

CO (g) + H₂O (g) → H₂ (g) + CO₂ (g)

ΔH∘(rxn) = ΔH∘(products) - ΔH∘(reactants)

ΔH∘(products) = (1×0) + (1×-393.509) = -393.509 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(reactants) = (1×-110.525) + (1×-241.818) = -352.343 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(rxn) = -393.509 - (-352.343) = -41.166 kJ/mol

3NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → 2HNO₃ (aq) + NO (g)

ΔH∘(rxn) = ΔH∘(products) - ΔH∘(reactants)

ΔH∘(products) = (2×-206.28) + (1×90.29) = -322.27 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(reactants) = (3×33.2) + (1×-285.8) = -186.2 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(rxn) = -322.27 - (-186.2) = -136.07 kJ/mol

Cr₂O₃ (s) + 3CO (g) → 2Cr (s) + 3CO₂ (g)

ΔH∘(rxn) = ΔH∘(products) - ΔH∘(reactants)

ΔH∘(products) = (2×0) + (3×-393.509) = -1,180.527 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(reactants) = (1×-1128.4) + (3×-110.525) = -1,459.975 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(rxn) = -1,180.527 - (-1,459.975) = 279.448 kJ/mol

Hope this Helps!!!

You have a solution of 600 mg of caffeine dissolved in 100 mL of water. The partition coefficient for aqueous caffeine extracted
klio [65]

Answer:

159 mg caffeine is being extracted in 60 mL dichloromethane

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of caffeine in 100 mL of water =  600 mg

Volume of the water = 100 mL

Partition co-efficient (K) = 4.6

mass of caffeine extracted = ??? (unknown)

The portion of the DCM = 60 mL

Partial co-efficient (K) = \frac{C_1}{C_2}

where; C_1= solubility of compound in the organic solvent and C_2 = solubility in aqueous water.

So; we can represent our data as:

K=(\frac{A_{(g)}}{60mL} ) ÷ (\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL} )

Since one part of the portion is A and the other part is B

A+B = 60 mL

A+B = 0.60

A= 0.60 - B

4.6=(\frac{0.6-B(mg)}{60mL} ) ÷ (\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL})

4.6 = \frac{(\frac{0.6-B(mg)}{60mL} )}{(\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL})}

4.6 × (\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL}) = (\frac{0.6-B(mg)}{60mL} )

4.6 B *\frac{60}{100} = 0.6 - B

2.76 B = 0.6 - B

2.76 + B = 0.6

3.76 B = 0.6

B = \frac{0.6}{3.76}

B = 0.159 g

B = 159 mg

∴ 159 mg caffeine is being extracted from the 100 mL of water containing 600 mg of caffeine with one portion of in 60 mL dichloromethane.
