Nuclear energy originates from the splitting of uranium atoms – a process called fission. This generates heat to produce steam, which is used by a turbine generator to generate electricity. Although renewable energy sources, like wind and solar power, are
important resources for a country’s energy mix, only nuclear power is
capable of producing large amounts of electricity 24 hours a day, 365
days a year.
For safety precaution which regards to employees, several federal agencies—the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC),
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. departments of
Energy and Transportation—establish radiation protection regulations for
U.S. nuclear plants based on internationally recognized scientific
studies.
For the safety precaution of power plants itself, The NRC monitors plant performance according to three strategic areas:
reactor safety, radiation safety and security.
Answers:
1st: 189.6 g/mol
2nd: 0.1357 L
3rd: 1.41 M
Explanation:
Finding Molar Mass:
SnCl2 = <u>Tin(II) Chloride</u>
Tin has a molar mass of <u>118.71 g/mol</u>
Chloride has a molar mass of <u>35.453 g/mol</u>
Chloride*2 = <u>70.906</u>
<u>118.71 + 70.906 ≈ 189.6 g/mol</u>
Finding Liters of Solution:
L = mL/1000
135.7 mL / 1000 = <u>0.1357</u>
Finding Molarity:
molarity = <u>moles of solute / liters of solution</u>
M = (36.4g / 189.6g) / 0.1357 L = <u>1.41 M</u>
Hope this helped ;)
Answer:
1:2:1:2
Explanation:
A molecule is made up of aggregates of small particles called atoms.
CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O
From the reaction above we have: 1 molecule of methane CH₄ reacting with 2 molecules of oxygen gas O₂ to produce 1 molecule of carbon dioxide gas CO₂ and 2 molecules of H₂O:
CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O
1 : 2 : 1 : 2
Answer:
Mass of Cl₂ produced 12.78 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of MnO₂ = 16 g
Mass of HCl = 30.0 g
Mass of Cl₂ produced = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
MnO₂ + 4HCl → MnCl₂ + Cl₂ + 2H₂O
Number of moles of MnO₂:
Number of moles = mass / molar mass
Number of moles = 16 g/ 87 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.18 mol
Number of moles of HCl:
Number of moles = mass / molar mass
Number of moles = 30 g/ 36.46 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.82 mol
Now we will compare the moles of Cl₂ with MnO₂ and HCl.
MnO₂ : Cl₂
1 : 1
0.18 : 0.18
HCl : Cl₂
4 : 1
0.82 : 1/4×0.82 = 0.205 mol
The number of moles of Cl₂ formed by HCl are less it will limiting reactant.
Mass of Cl₂ formed:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.18 mol × 71 g/mol
Mass = 12.78 g
To Find :
How many moles are in
atoms of iron.
Given :
We know, 1 mole of any element or compound contains exactly
( Avogadro's Number ) atoms/compound .
Now, 
So, number of moles in given number of atoms are :

Hence, this is the required solution.
