Explain what happens in a nuclear chain reaction

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vesnalui [34]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Nuclear Chain Reactions. A chain reaction refers to a process in which neutrons released in fission produce an additional fission in at least one further nucleus. This nucleus in turn produces neutrons, and the process repeats. The process may be controlled (nuclear power) or uncontrolled (nuclear weapons).

When you add energy to matter the particles move
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Energy added: particles move faster and further apart, and matter expands (state changes from solid to liquid to gas). Energy removed: particles move slower and closer together, and matter contracts (state changes from gas to liquid to solid).

KCl is an ionic salt with a formula weight of 74.54 g/mole. A 1.417 M (mole/liter) KCl solution has a density of 1064.5 grams/li
xenn [34]

Answer:

Mass of the salt:  105.6g of KCl.

Mass water: 958.9g of water.

Molality: 1.478m.

Explanation:

<em>Mass of the salt:</em>

In 1L, there are 1.417 moles. In grams:

1.417 moles KCl * (74.54g / mol) = 105.6g of KCl

<em>Mass of the water:</em>

We can determine the mass of solution (Mass of water + mass KCl) by multiplication of the voluome (1L and density 1064.5g/L), thus:

1L * (1064.5g / L) = 1064.5g - Mass solution.

Mass water = 1064.5g - 105.6g = 958.9g of water

<em>Molality:</em>

Moles KCl = 1.417 moles KCl.

kg Water = 958.9g = 0.9589kg.

Molality = 1.417mol / 0.9589kg = 1.478m

If the pressure of a 2.00 L sample of gas is 50.0 kPa, what pressure does the gas exert if its volume is decreased to 20.0 mL?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

P₂ = 5000 KPa

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 2.00 L

Initial pressure = 50.0 KPa

Final volume = 20.0 mL (20/1000=0.02 L)

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solved through the Boly's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume  

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

50.0 KPa × 2.00L = P₂ × 0.02 L

P₂ = 100 KPa. L/0.02 L

P₂ = 5000 KPa
