Answer:

Uranium

Explanation:

The only natural element currently used for nuclear fission in reactors is uranium. Natural uranium is a highly energetic substance: one kilogram of it can generate as much energy as 10 tonnes of oil. Naturally occurring uranium comprises, almost entirely, two isotopes: U238 (99.283%) and U235 (0.711%).

Answer:

The right choice is "wind power requires a lot of space and depends on local weather patterns "

Explanation:

  1. solar power produces harmful chemicals
  • it is incorrect because solar power doesn't produce any chemicals

    2. geothermal power requires more land than other power plants  

  •   it is incorrect because geothermal power requires digging a stable 5 km-deep shaft not a land

    3. nuclear power produces small amounts of energy from large masses

  • it is incorrect because nuclear power produces large amounts of energy from small masses.

So the right choice is "wind power requires a lot of space and depends on local weather patterns "

Typically ____
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Protons

Explanation:

Typically protons cannot be removed from the atom. Removing protons from an atom will completely change the atom as it will become another element entirely.

In an atom, protons are held by strong nuclear forces.

  • Within an atom, protons are the positively charged particles.
  • Together with the neutrons, they are found in the nucleus of an atom.
  • The number of protons within an atom is the atomic number of the atoms and it determines the nature and type of atom it is.
  • Protons cannot be removed from an atom due to the strong binding force holding them together in place.

The radius of a hydrogen atom is 37 pm and its mass is 1.67 × 10-24 g. What is the density of the atom in grams per cubic centim
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

V = 4/3 * 3.1416 * (37x10-10)3

V = 2.12x10-25 cm3

d = m/V

d = 1.67x10-24 / 2.12x10-25 = 7.87 g/cm3

The difference in temperature, let's convert F to ºC:

ºC = -80-32/1.8 = -62.22 ºC

dT = -92.6 + 62.2 = -30.4 ºC

Answering the following questions will help you focus on the outcomes of the experiments.
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

ex.1

1.The water in the test tube expands as it is heated. There is only one direction to expand in, the glass tube. This glass tube is narrow so that a small change in volume will result in a considerable change in height; your signal is amplified. This is the same phenomenon as in thermometers with a glass bulb on the lower end.

2. there will be a thermal expansion will happened.
