Answer : Option A) 45.5%
 
Explanation : We use the formula of calculating energy efficiency which is as,

η (in %)= [P_{Out} / P_{in}] X 100 
where η is energy efficiency,
and P values are for energy out and in.

So plugging the given values, we get,

η (in %) = (11825.5 / 25978.8) X 100 = 45.5 %

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Explanation: In the previous section we listed four characteristics of radioactivity and nuclear decay that form the basis for the use of radioisotopes in the health and biological sciences. A fifth characteristic of nuclear reactions is that they release enormous amounts of energy. The first nuclear reactor to achieve controlled nuclear disintegration was built in the early 1940s by Enrico Fermi and his colleagues at the University of Chicago. Since that time, a great deal of effort and expense has gone into developing nuclear reactors as a source of energy. The nuclear reactions presently used or studied by the nuclear power industry fall into two categories: fission reactions and fusion reactions

Many computer chips are manufactured from silicon, which occurs in nature as SiO2. When SiO2 is heated to melting, it reacts wit
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

A) SiO2 is the limiting reactant

B) Theoretical yield= 72333.3g

C) % yield =91.5%

Explanation:

SiO2(s) + 2C(s) --------------> Si(s) + 2CO(g)

n(SiO2)= 155000/60 = 2583.33 mols

n(C)= 79000/12= 3291.66 mols

a)SiO2 is the limiting reactant

According to the balanced reaction equation,

60g of SiO2 produced 28g of SiO2

155000g of SiO2 will produce 155000×28/60= 72333.3g

Therefore theoretical yield of Si= 72333.3g

% yield= 66200/72333.3×100/1 =91.5%
