<span>Calcium crystal has a face center cubic (FCC) structure. For FCC structure,
relation between edge length (a) and radius (r) is
                                                       a = 2</span>√2 r
<span>Given: r = 180 pm
Therefore, a = 2</span>√2 180
<span>                     = 2 x 1.141 x 180
                     = 410.76 pm

</span><span>The length of the edge of the Ca unit cell is 410.76 pm.</span><span>

Answer:

Chain reaction

Explanation:

A chain reaction is a reaction that sustains itself. It has the ability to continue for a very long time without adding any more materials to the reaction system. It may be succinctly described as a self propagating reaction.

In a nuclear fission, uranium-235 is bombarded with neutrons to produce unstable uranium-236 which disintegrates to form daughter nuclei and produce more neutrons that bombard more uranium-235 and the reaction continues indefinitely.

Discuss the significance of assigning an atomic mass of exactly 12 amu to the carbon-12 isotope.
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Cabon-12 has same average atomic weight and mass number.

Explanation:

carbon-12 has average atomic weight 12 amu and mass number of 12.

amu represents average of mass of a nucleon.

As carbon-12 has same average atomic mass and mass number therefore carbon-12 is a good standard to determine average mass of a nucleon.

Again, abundance of carbon-12 isotope is almost equal to 99%. Therefore fluctuation of average atomic weight from 12 amu is very very low.

So, carbon-12 is taken as a standard to determine mass of a nucleon.

Hence atomic mass of carbon-12 is 12 amu.

Which of the following has the most stable nucleus? <br><br> Fe<br><br> He<br><br> U<br><br> B
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Fe

Explanation:

<em>Ferrum</em><em> </em>[Iron] has the most stable nucleus because of <em>binding</em><em> </em><em>energy</em><em> </em><em>per</em><em> </em><em>nucleon</em><em>.</em><em> </em>Although Uranium<em> </em>is<em> </em>another possibility, in this case, it is more radioactive than Iron. It disintegrates very swiftly that all is done so, just to achieve stability.

I hope this helps you out alot, and as always, I am joyous to assist anyone at any time.
