Uranium (u235), naturally occurring at 0.7%, must be ____________ before it can be put into a reactor. enriched to 3% extensivel

Answer: -

Extensively processed to clean, purify, and concentrate it.

Uranium (U235), naturally occurring at 0.7%, must undergo a series of processes to become a useable fuel before it can be put into a reactor.

The process include converting uranium oxide to uranium hexafluoride allowing it to be enriched to 3%.

After enrichment, the gas is converted to uranium dioxide fuel pellets. These are placed inside thin metal tubes which are assembled in bundles to become the fuel elements for the core of the reactor.

What is the overall cell potential for this redox reaction? Cd + Hg22+ → Cd2+ + 2Hg Given: Cd2+ + 2e− → Cd(s) = –0.40 and Hg22+
Hoochie [10]

Answer:  1.19 V

Explanation:

Standard potential for an electrochemical cell is given by:

E^0{cell} = standard electrode potential =E^0{cathode}-E^0{anode}

The E^0 values have to be reduction potentials.  

Given:

E^o_{Cd^{2+}/Cd}=-0.40V

E^o_{Hg_2^{2+}/Hg}=0.79V

Cd+Hg_2^{2+}\rightarrow Cd^{2+}+2Hg

Cadmium is losing electrons , undergo oxidation and thus act as anode. mercury is gaining electrons, undergo reduction and thus acts as cathode.

E^0{cell} = standard electrode potential =E^0{cathode}-E^0{anode}=0.79-(-0.40)=1.19V

Thus the standard potential for an electrochemical cell with the cell reaction is 1.19 V.

Glade air freshener gel “disappearing” is an example of
netineya [11]

Answer:

Vaporization

Explanation:

Vaporization is the change of a specie to the gaseous state. To 'disappear' in this case simply means to change to the gaseous state.

Substances with high vapour pressure tend to be easily converted to vapour phase. Hence if Glade air freshener gel 'disappears' easily, then it has a high vapour pressure and is easily converted to vapour (gas).

How many molecules are there in 0.565 moles of C6H14?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

3.4 × 10^23 molecules

Explanation:

To find the number of molecules present in C6H14, we multiply the number of moles in the compound by Avagadro's number (6.02 × 10^23 atoms).

number of molecules = number of moles (mol) × 6.02 × 10^23?

Number of molecules = 0.565 × 6.02 × 10^23

3.4 × 10^23 molecules

What type of heat transfer is a beaker on a hot plate an example of?
sesenic [268]

Heat transfer to a beaker on a hot plate is an example of conduction.

Explanation:

Conduction is a process where heat is transferred from one particle to another particle. Conduction is mainly possible in case of solids.In case of solids the atoms as well as the molecules are tightly packed through which the kinetic energy can easily pass. Conduction takes place when both the objects are touching each other. But in case of liquids molecules are loosely packed as a result convection takes place.
