If a uranium atom absorbs a neutron it will be unstable, and will generally split into two fragments. This process, the splitting of a large nucleus into two smaller ones, is known as NUCLEAR FISSION.

Hope this helps

Answer: Your answer would be C. nuclear fission

Explanation:

<u><em>This is the answer because, nuclear fission happens when the nucleus of an atom is split into two pieces. This releases alot of heat. In other words a nuclear reactor, a chain reaction occurs. Meaning when one atom is split it causes other atoms to split as well.</em></u>

sammy [17]

hey there!

atomic mass cobalt = 58.9332 amu

therefore:

1 mol Co ------------ 58.9332 g

moles ------------ 50 g

moles = 50 x 1 / 58.9332

moles  = 50 / 58.9332

 = 0.8484 moles of Co

When comparing the two elements k and cs , the element with the more negative electron affinity is?
Nutka1998 [239]
The answer to this question would be: <span>cs 
</span>
Electron affinity is determined by the amount of energy released/spent for the atom to add an electron for neutral atoms in gas state. 
Lower periodic table means a bigger radius atom. In this case, the distance between the electron to the nucleus is further too, so the affinity is expected to become lower.

In this question, the K and Cs are located in the first column of the periodic table, but Cs located lower. So, the Cs that located lower in periodic table should have a lower affinity.
