Answer:
Water breaking down into hydrogen and oxygen is a decomposition reaction
Hydrogen and oxygen combining to form water is a synthesis reaction
Explanation:
A decomposition reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the breakdown of a chemical reactant entity into two or more simpler product fragments
Water H₂O undergoes a decomposition reaction by breaking down into hydrogen, H₂,, and oxygen, O₂, as follows;
2H₂O (l) → 2H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)
A synthesis reaction is a reaction that involves the chemical combination of two or more dissimilar molecules or atoms to produce a different compound or molecule
Water, H₂O, is formed by a synthesis reaction of hydrogen, H₂,, and oxygen, O₂, combining as follows;
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
The correct answer is The storage and management of radioactive wastes
Explanation:
In general, nuclear reactions (changes in the nucleus of an atom such as fission) release a lot of energy including a lot of heat. Moreover, this heat is used by humans to obtain electricity and other types of energy, which is known as a nuclear power. This type of power is considered positive because it does not emit carbon and it is quite efficient.
However, in most cases, it is a threat to the environment and living beings because storing and managing the wastes of this type of power is difficult and expensive. Indeed, dealing with the wastes of nuclear power requires complex infrastructure, and any accident or leaking leads to serious consequences from the death of those exposed to the wastes to permanent loss of diversity or changes in nearby areas.
Answer: True
A water pump
belong to a positive displacement pump that provides constant flow of water at
fixed speed, regardless of changes in the counter pressure. The two main types
of positive displacement pump are rotary pumps and reciprocating pumps.
Moreover, water
pump is a reciprocating positive displacement pump that have an expanding
cavity on the suction side and a decreasing cavity on the discharge side. In
water pumps, the liquid flows into the pumps as the cavity on the suction side
expands and then the liquid flows out of the discharge as the cavity collapses
providing water in a pail.
