Answer:

mass of U-235  = 15.9 g (3 sig. figures)

Explanation:

1 atom can produce -------------------------> 3.20 x 10^-11 J energy

x atoms can produce ----------------------> 1.30 x 10^12 J energy

x = 1.30 x 10^12 / 3.20 x 10^-11

x = 4.06 x 10^22 atoms

1 mol ----------------------> 6.023 x 10^23 atoms

y mol ----------------------> 4.06 x 10^22 atoms

y = 0.0675 moles

mass of U-235 = 0.0675 x 235 = 15.8625

mass of U-235  = 15.9 g (3 sig. figures)

Sodium borohydride, NaBH4, and boron trifluoride, BF3, are compounds of boron. What are the shapes around boron in the borohydri
STatiana [176]
Compound 1: Sodium borohydride
In sodium borohydride (NaBH4), B is a central metal.
Electronic configuration of B is 1s2 2s2 2p1.
B undergoes sp3 hybridization in NaBH4, to generate 4 hybrid orbitals. These hybrid orbitals, forms sigma bond with 4 'H' atoms. Due to this, the structure of sodium borohydride in tetrahedral.

Compound 2: B<span>oron trifluoride
</span>In boron trifluoride (BF3), B is a central metal.
Electronic configuration of B is 1s2 2s2 2p1.
B undergoes sp2 hybridization in NaBH4, to generate 3 hybrid orbitals. These hybrid orbitals, forms sigma bond with 3 'H' atoms. Due to this, the structure of <span>boron trifluoride</span> is <span>triangular planner</span>.

Which of the following are not single-displacement reactions?
Goshia [24]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{B and C }}

Explanation:

In a single-displacement reaction, one element exchanges partners with another element in a compound.

\textbf{A. } \rm Fe + 2HCl \longrightarrow FeCl_2 + H_2

This is a single-displacement reaction, because the element Fe exchanges partners with H in HCl.

\textbf{B. } \rm KOH + HNO_3 \longrightarrow H_2O + KNO_3

This is not a single-displacement reaction, because it is a reaction between two compounds.

This is a double displacement reaction in which the K⁺ and H⁺ cations change partners with the anions.

\textbf{C. } \rm Na_2S + 2HCl \longrightarrow 2NaCl + H_2S

This is not a single-displacement reaction. It is another double displacement reaction, in which the Na⁺ and H⁺ cations change partners with the anions.

\textbf{D. } \rm Ca + 2HOH \longrightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + H_2

This is a single-displacement reaction, because the element Ca exchanges partners with H in H₂O.

\boxed{\textbf{B and C }} are not single-displacement reactions.

On Earth an object weighs 50 N. On Planet X, the object weighs 500 N. What conclusion can be drawn from these observations? A. P
inysia [295]
The gravitation field strength of Planet X is 10 times that of Earth's, as the object weight has increased 10 times. This is only possible if the planet is more massive or more dense (smaller diameter).

Therefore, the answer is C.
