Why are red dwarfs not able to fuse helium to heavier elements?

Chemistry
1 answer:
ohaa [14]4 years ago

Fusing helium into heavier elements requires extreme pressure and temperature. However red dwarfs' gravity is simply not enough to bring helium atom close enough to each other for fusion to occur. Therefore, red dwarfs not able to fuse helium to heavier elements.☺

11. If four gases in a cylinder each exert 6 atm, what is the total pressure exerted by the
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

24 atm is the total pressure exerted by the gases

Explanation:

We propose this situation:

In a vessel, we have 4 gases (for example, hydrogen, Xe, methane and chlorine)

Each of the gases has the same pressure:

6 atm → hydrogen

6 atm → xenon

6 atm → methane

6 atm → chlorine

To determine the total pressure, we sum all of them:

Partial pressure H₂ + Partial pressure Xe + Partial pressure CH₄ + Partial pressure Cl₂ = Total P

6 atm + 6 atm + 6 atm + 6 atm = 24atm

Why are prefixes not needed in naming ionic compounds?
kari74 [83]

Answer:

when naming ionic compounds — those are only used in naming covalent molecular compounds. Do NOT use prefixes to indicate how many of each element is present; this information is implied in the name of the compound. since iron can form more than one charge. Ionic Compounds Containing a Metal and a Polyatomic Ion.

2) Two students are running in a cross country race. One has a mass of 60 kg, while the other has a mass of 70 kg. If they are b
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The second student with mass 70kg has more momentum

Explanation:

Using the formula:

p = m × v

Where;

p = momentum (kgm/s)

m = mass (kg)

v = velocity (m/s)

According to this question, two students are running in a cross country race.

Student 1 has the following; m = 60kg, v = 7m/s

Student 2 has the following; m = 70kg, v = 7m/s

Using p = mv

Student 1, p = 60 × 7 = 420 kgm/s

Student 2, p = 70 × 7 = 490 kgm/s

From the result of the above calculations, student 2 with mass 70kg has more momentum.

Which explains the change in ionization energy that occurs between removing the first and second electron from an Atom
Mars2501 [29]
 The ionization energy increases because the ratio of the protons to electrons increases. It is quantitatively expressed in symbols as X + energy → X+ + e−.
