Basically, an atomic bomb relying on pure fission like a plutonium bomb works by chain reactions. However, something must initiate the chain of reactions : that's where Hydrogen comes in:

the fission reaction of Uranium is U+n\rightarrow Sr+Xe+2n where n is a neutron. Hydrogen is basically a neutron and an electron; it's thus quite easy to start the reaction with hydrogen.

There is no known way to significantly reduce radioactive decay as far as I know (I might be wrong), or to turn radioactive plutonium into non-radioactive plutonium without tearing the molecules apart.

Which principle goes against Bohr's theory and why??​
Basile [38]

Answer:

As the Bohr's fixed orbit gives precise information about the radial position and momentum of the orbit, it is against the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Thus it is inferred that the Heisenberg uncertainty principle goes and the concept Bohr's fixed Orbit are opposite to each other.

When two moles of ethane react completely with oxygen, how many moles of carbon dioxide will be produced?A. 2.B. 4.C. 8.D. Unkno
babymother [125]

Answer:

Option B.

Explanation:

As any reaction of combustion, the O₂ is a reactant and the products are CO₂ and H₂O. Combustion reaction for ethane is:

2C₂H₆  +  7O₂   →   4CO₂  +  6H₂O

So 2 moles of ethane react with 7 moles of oxygen to make 4 moles of dioxide and 6 moles of water.

Then 2 moles of ethane will produce 4 moles of CO₂
