Answer:

Reduction

Explanation:

Gaining electrons means reduction. When the electrons are on the reactant side of the reaction, they are added to the other reactant. This indicates that the Sn^4+ is gaining electrons and is therefore reduced (reduction).

A monatomic ideal gas that is initially at 1.50 * 105 Pa and has a volume of 0.0800 m3 is compressed adiabatically to a volume o

Answer:

300000Pa or 3×10^5 Pa

Explanation:

Since the problem involves only two parameters of volume and pressure, the formula for Boyle's law is suitably used.

Using Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

P1 is the initial pressure = 1.5×10^5Pa

V1 is the initial volume = 0.08m3

P2 is the final pressure (required)

V2 is the final volume = 0.04 m3

From the formula, P2 = P1V1/V2

P2 = 1.5×10^5 × 0.08 ÷ 0.04

= 300000Pa or 3×10^5 Pa.

Uranium-235 would be more useful for dating in Cambrian time because Cambrian time was 540 million years ago while the half life of carbon-14 is only 5,730 years

A breeder nuclear reactor is a reactor in which nonfissile U-238 is converted into fissile Pu-239. The process involves bombardm

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer: The nuclear equations for the given process is written below.

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the bombardment of neutron to U-238 isotope follows:

$_{92}^{238}\textrm{U}+n\rightarrow _{92}^{239}\textrm{U}$

Beta decay is defined as the process in which neutrons get converted into an electron and a proton. The released electron is known as the beta particle.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta$
