How must nuclear waste that is considered high-level waste to be stored

Chemistry
1 answer:
Korolek [52]1 year ago
3 0

Answer: the best option to answer the question is the second one (letter B).

Explanation:

The question requires us to choose, among the options given, which one best corresponds to the correct form of disposal fo high-level nuclear waste.

High-level nuclear waste corresponds mainly to highly radioactive materials produced as byproducts of reactions that occur inside nuclear reactors. When they are not of use anymore, they are disposed in underground repositories, without any recycling. The place of disposal of this type of nuclear waste is usually placed in cannister which are placed underground and sealed with rocks. Since the time of decay of high-level nuclear waste can reach hundreds of thousands of years, this type of waste must be disposed of in a way that provides adequate protection for a long time.

Considering the information above, we can say that the best option to answer the question is the second one (letter B).

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to the surface. Unlike a liquid, a solid object does not flow to take on the shape of its container, nor does it expand to fill the entire available volume like a gas. Solids molecules stay close to eachother maintaining its shape meaning it is in a ordered pattern.

Th actual yield of the reaction is 24.86 g

We'll begin by calculating the theoretical yield of the reaction.

2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl

Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol

Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 × 23 = 46 g

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol

Mass of NaCl from the balanced = 2 × 58.5 = 117 g

From the balanced equation above,

46 g of Na reacted to produce 117 g of NaCl.

Therefore,

11.5 g of Na will react to produce = (11.5 × 117) / 46 = 29.25 g of NaCl.

Thus, the theoretical yield of NaCl is 29.25 g.

Finally, we shall determine the actual yield of NaCl.

  • Percentage yield = 85%
  • Theoretical yield = 29.25 g
  • Actual yield =?

Actual yield = Percent yield × Theoretical yield

Actual yield = 85% × 29.25

Actual yield = 0.85 × 29.25 g

Actual yield = 24.86 g

How many molecules are there in 8.00 grams of glucose, C6H12O6
beks73 [17]

Answer:

molecules C6H12O6 = 2.674 E22 molecules.

Explanation:

from periodic table:

⇒ molecular mass C6H12O6 = ((6)(12.011)) + ((12)(1.008)) + ((6)(15.999))

⇒ Mw C6H12O6 = 180.156 g/mol

⇒ mol C6H12O6 = (8.00 g)(mol/180.156 g) = 0.0444 mol C6H12O6

∴ mol ≡ 6.022 E23 molecules

⇒ molecules C6H12O6 = (0.0444 mol)(6.022 E23 molecules/mol)

⇒ molecules C6H12O6 = 2.674 E22 molecules
