Answer:

B ratio of neutrons to protons

Explanation:

The stability of an atom is determined by the ratio of neutrons to protons in the nucleus of an atom. The lager the ratio of neutrons to proton the lesser is the stability of the nucleus. The n to p ratio of higher atomic number that exist in a number of isotopic form is higher and their stability is low. The uranium 238 breaks down to lead 206.

Laser fusion Group of answer choices uses chemical reactions to produce energy uses nuclear reactions to produce energy implodes
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Uses nuclear reactions to produce energy

Implodes a fuel pellet

Explanation:

Laser fusion is a method of initiating nuclear fusion reactions through heating, and compressing fuel pellets containing deuterium and tritium using high energy density laser beams. Lase fusion is also known as inertial confinement fusion and the energy produced by the process is known as Laser Inertial Fusion Energy, LIFE.

During the process of laser fusion, small pellets of deuterium-tritium (DT) isotopes mixture are fed into a blast chamber where they are compressed to high densities using a number of amplified laser beams in the chamber.

The high energy density of the beams as well as the heat produced due to compression, induces the thermonuclear explosion ignition resulting in the production of high energetic products such as charged particles, x-rays and neutrons. The energy produced is absorbed and stored as heat in a blanket that is then used in a steam thermal cycle to generate electrical power.

There are two methods of compression of the DT pellet: direct and indirect-drive laser fusions.

However, there are a number of limitations to energy production by this process. One limitation is that the process is extremely inefficient in energy energy production. Also, the heat produced by the flashtubes results innthe deformation of the laser glass.

6. Think of some other chemical reactions. List them and the type of reaction: exothermic or endothermic. Example: Burning coal
Oksanka [162]

Remember: energy is conserved in a chemical reaction (visualize the reaction and question whether heat lies on reactant side (left) or product side (right))

-exothermic- heat is released (heat is on the product side)

>forming an ionic lattice (SALT)- mixture of Na and Cl results in a more stable ionic lattice, causing this reaction to be exothermic

>burning wood

-endothermic- heat is absorbed (heat is on the reactant side)

> cooking an egg
