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.
Answer: 97
Explanation:
The element Ru is <u>Ruthenium</u> which has <u>44 protons</u>.
In this case, our atom is an isotope with <u>53 neutrons</u>.
With this information, we can use the mass number formula to find this atom's mass number.
mass number = protons + neutrons
mass number = <u>44 protons</u> + <u>53 neutrons</u>
mass number = <u>97</u>
Answer:
the answer to that question is d
Answer:
(C) H3O+(aq) + C2H3O2−(aq) -> HC2H3O2(aq) + H2O(l)
Explanation:
A buffer is a solution of a weak acid and its salt. It mitigates against changes in acidity or alkalinity of a system. A buffer maintains the pH at a constant value by switching the equilibrium concentration of the conjugate acid or conjugate base respectively.
Addition if an acid shifts the equilibrium position towards the conjugate acid side while addition of a base shifts the equilibrium position towards the conjugate base side.
Answer:
SO < CO2 < C3H8
Explanation:
Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness of a system. The standard molar entropy of a substance refers to the entropy of 1 mole of the substance vunder standard conditions.
The molar entropy depends on the number of microstates in the system which in turn depends on the number of atoms in the molecule.
C3H8 has 11 atoms and hence the highest number of microstates followed by CO2 having three atoms and least of all SO having only two atoms.
