What type of nuclear reactions do all current reactors use

Chemistry
1 answer:
emmasim [6.3K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Nuclear fission

Explanation:

All nuclear reactors in operation are based on the principle of nuclear fission of Uranium nuclide to produce energy. These is produced is being controlled and is used in heating water to steam. The steam is then harnessed to drive or power steam turbines which is used for the generation of electricity.

Given that an E2 reaction proceeds with anti periplanar stereochemistry, draw the products of each elimination. The alkyl halide
serg [7]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The first two pictures show the reagents used in these reactions a) and b). As it was stated, An E2 reaction proceeds with an antiperiplanar stereochemistry, so in the case of reaction a) it fill form a product with the groups in opposite directions. In other words, a Trans product.

In the case of reaction b) we have the same reaction, with the difference that we have changed the CH3 and phenyl group of positions. This will cause that the reaction will proceed the same but the stereochemistry of the final product will be changed too. In this case, and according to the picture 3 attached, we can see that the product formed is a cis product. So we can conclude that the relation of product a) and b) is that they are isomers, the trans and cis isomers respectively. See picture below for mechanism and products

If 5 grams of hydrogen reacted with 40 games of oxygen to form water, how much of water would be formed?
GREYUIT [131]
2H₂ + O₂ = 2H₂O

n(H₂)=m(H₂)/M(H₂)
n(H₂)=5g/2.0g/mol=2.5 mol

n(O₂)=m(O₂)/M(O₂)
n(O₂)=40g/32.0g/mol=1.25 mol

H₂ : O₂ = 2 : 1

2.5 : 1.25 = 2 : 1

n(H₂O)=n(H₂)=2n(O₂)=2.5 mol

m(H₂O)=n(H₂O)M(H₂O)

m(H₂O)=2.5mol*18.0g/mol=45.0 g

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[Given] 2.16 moles SO₂

[Solve] grams (mass) SO₂

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[PT] Molar Mass of S - 32.07 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of SO₂ - 32.07 + 2(16.00) = 64.07 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

  1. [DA] Set up:                                                                                                     \displaystyle 2.16 \ mol \ SO_2(\frac{64.07 \ g \ SO_2}{1 \ mol \ SO_2})
  2. [DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]:                                                         \displaystyle 138.391 \ g \ SO_2

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

138.391 g SO₂ ≈ 138 g SO₂
