15. Which characteristic of a substance will NOT

Someone please explain how this works Which type of reaction occurs in the core of a nuclear reactor in a nuclear power plant?

Paul [167]

An example of a reaction that occurs within the core of a nuclear reactor is the nuclear fission reaction given:

²³⁵₉₂U + ¹₀n ---> ⁹⁰₃₈Sr + ¹⁴³₅₄ + 3 ¹₀n

<h3>What is a nuclear reactor?</h3>

A nuclear reactor is a device which produces electrical energy as a result of the nuclear reactions that take place within it.

In a nuclear reactor, the reaction that takes place within the core is a nuclear fission chain reaction.

In a nuclear fission reaction, the nucleus of larger atoms are split into the nucleus of smaller atoms when fast moving neutrons are used to bombard the nucleus of the large atom. The fission of the nucleus of the large atom results in the formation of atoms of lighter nucleus as well as more protons which then bombard more nucleus of the large atoms resulting in a chain reaction.

The chain reaction occurring within the nuclear reactor core is controlled by the insertion of boron rods which absorbs the excess neutrons produced.

An example of a reaction that occurs within the core of a nuclear reactor is given below:

²³⁵₉₂U + ¹₀n ---> ⁹⁰₃₈Sr + ¹⁴³₅₄ + 3 ¹₀n

1. Unas de las formas de producir nitrógeno gaseoso (N2) es mediante la oxidación de metilamina (CH3NH2), tal como se muestra en

Maslowich

Answer:

a) 4CH₃NH₂ + 9O₂ ⇄ 4CO₂ + 10H₂O + 2N₂

b) m = 5,043 g

c) % = 69,4 %

Explanation:

a) La ecuación balanceada es la siguiente:

4CH₃NH₂ + 9O₂ ⇄ 4CO₂ + 10H₂O + 2N₂

En el balanceo, se tiene en la relación estequiométrica que 4 moles de metilamina reacciona con 9 moles de oxígeno para producir 4 moles de dióxido de carbono, 10 moles de agua y 2 moles de nitrógeno.

b) Para determinar la masa de nitrógeno se debe calcular primero el reactivo limitante:

$n_{O_{2}} = \frac{m}{M} = \frac{25,6 g}{31,99 g/mol} = 0,800 moles$

$n_{CH_{3}NH_{2}} = \frac{4}{9}*0,800 moles = 0,356 moles$

De la ecuación anterior se tiene que la cantidad de moles de metilamina necesaria para reaccionar con 0,800 moles de oxígeno es 0,356 moles, y la cantidad de moles iniciales de metilamina es 0,5 moles, por lo tanto el reactivo limitante es el oxígeno.

Ahora, podemos calcular la masa de nitrógeno producida:

$n_{N_{2}} = \frac{2}{9}*n_{O_{2}} = \frac{2}{9}*0,8 moles = 0,18 moles$

$m_{N_{2}} = n_{N_{2}}*M = 0,18 moles*28,014 g/mol = 5,043 g$

Por lo tanto, se pueden producir 5,043 g de nitrógeno.

c) El redimiento de la reacción se puede calcular usando la siguiente fórmula:

$\% = \frac{R_{r}}{R_{T}}*100$

<u>Donde</u>:

$R_{r}$ : es el rendimiento real

$R_{T}$ : es el rendimiento teórico

$\% = \frac{3,5}{5,043}*100 = 69,4$

Entonces, el procentaje de rendimiento de la reacción es 69,4%.

According to molecular orbital theory, the regions of the wave function with the highest probability of finding electrons are ar

Vlada [557]

According to molecular orbital theory, regions of wave function with highest probability of finding electrons are areas with constructive interference.

An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle that can exist either free or bound to an atom (not bound). A bound electron is one of the three primary types of particles that make up an atom, along with protons and neutrons. Protons, neutrons, and electrons combined make up the atom's nucleus. A proton's positive charge balances an electron's negative charge. When an atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, it is said to be in a neutral state. Electrons are distinct from other particles in a number of ways. They have a much lower mass, are found outside the nucleus, and exhibit both wave- and particle-like characteristics. The electron is a basic particle.

The molecules of a substance must have what characteristics in order to be flexible

Goryan [66]

Answer:
<span>The molecules of a substance which must have the <u>a</u></span><u>bility to move past one another</u> are said to be flexible.

Explanation:
Those substances are said to be flexible which can be bent without breaking. There are many substances which are hard in nature but still can be bent. The hardness of such materials is due to strong interactions between the molecules and the flexibility comes due to their amorphous backbone. Therefore, greater the crystalline level of macromolecules lesser is the flexibility and greater the amorphous character greater is the flexibility and vice versa. Also, the flexibility of polymers is increased by adding plastisizers in it. Plastisizers make the hard polymers flexible by breaking the crosslinkers and enabling the macromolecules to move past one another.
