In nuclear fission heavier elements are split to make lighter elements whilst releasing energy. An atom, its nucleus to be more specific, is bombarded with neutrons. The nucleus becomes unstable and it starts to split/decay. It creates the fusion products. Neutrons and lighter elements are released; the neutrons from the nuclei of the atom(s) being split.

Answer:

Explanation:

It is the process in which a heavy nucleus is divided into two nuclei with smaller mass numbers, that is, lighter ones. This process provides enormous amounts of energy and consumes relatively small masses of material.

In general, when capturing a neutron, a heavy atomic nucleus experiences fission to produce two lighter nuclides, neutrons and large amounts of energy as depicted in the attached image.

When baking soda (sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate, NaHCO3) is heated, it releases carbon dioxide gas, which is r

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

a. NaHCO₃ + HCl → NaCl + H₂O + CO₂

b. 39.14 g is the mass of NaHCO₃ required to produce 20.5 moles of CO₂

Explanation:

A possible reaction for NaHCO₃ to make dioxide is this one, when it reacts with hydrochloric to produce the mentioned gas.

NaHCO₃ + HCl → NaCl + H₂O + CO₂

Ratio in this reaction is 1:1

So 1 mol of baking soda, produce 1 mol of CO₂

Let's calculate the moles

20.5 g CO₂ / 44 g/m = 0.466 moles

This moles of gas came from the same moles of salt.

Molar mass baking soda = 84 g/m

Molar mass . moles = mass

84 g/m . 0.466 moles = 39.14 g

Please help!! Which process occurs during all chemical reactions?

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

In a chemical reaction, only the atoms present in the reactants can end up in the products. No new atoms are created, and no atoms are destroyed. In a chemical reaction, reactants contact each other, bonds between atoms in the reactants are broken, and atoms rearrange and form new bonds to make the products.

If 00810 mol neon gas at the particular temperature and pressure occupies a volume of 214 mL ehat volume would 0.00684 mol neon

Grace [21]

Answer:

$V_2=181mL$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, Avogadro's relationship allows us to relate the moles and the volume of a gas at an initial condition and an a final one as shown below:

$\frac{n_1}{V_1}=\frac{n_2}{V_2}$

Thus, the volume that 0.00684 mol of neon the same pressure and temperature is computed below as required:

$V_2=\frac{V_1*n_2}{n_1}=\frac{214mL*0.00684mol}{0.00810mol} \\\\V_2=181mL$

Best regards.
