Breeder reactors are used to convert the nonfissionable nuclide U-238 to a fissionable product. Neutron capture by the U-238 is

followed by two successive beta decays. What is the final fissionable product? Product

Answer:

Pu-239

Explanation:

Beta decay moves the element which undergoes the decay one place to the right in the periodic table since to conserve charge and being beta radiations an  electron we convert a neutron into a proton and an electron. In neutron capture we increase the atomic mas by one unit. We that in mind, lets solve the question:

U-238 + ₁⁰ n ⇒ U-239 ⇒ Np -239 +  ₋₁⁰β ⇒ Pu-239 +  ₋₁⁰β

How do valence electrons interact between non polar covalent, polar covalent, and ionic bonds?​
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

In non-polar covalent bonds, the electrons are equally shared between the two atoms. For atoms with differing electronegativity, the bond will be a polar covalent interaction, where the electrons will not be shared equally.

__________ could be the formula of an alkene. a. c3h8 b. c2h8 c. c6h6 d. c3h6 e. c17h36
drek231 [11]

The general formula for alkenes is CnH2n, the formula with hydrogen count double the carbon count should be the correct formula for alkene and that is d. C3H6.

What are alkenes?

Alkenes, commonly known as olefins, are organic unsaturated hydrocarbons that have one or more carbon-carbon double bonds in their chemical structure and are composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons with a double bond between the carbon atoms. Carbon atoms are connected by at least one double bond. The general formula for alkenes is C n H 2n. Olefin is frequently substituted with alkenes. The word "olefin" comes from the Greek phrase "olefin gas," which denotes the production of oil.

<u>Since, their general formula is CnH2n, the formula with hydrogen count double the carbon count should be the correct formula for alkene and that is d. C3H6.</u>

In an electroplating process, copper (ionic charge +2e, atomic weight 63.6 g/mol) is deposited using a current of 10.0 A. What m
salantis [7]

Answer : The mass of copper deposit is, 1.98 grams

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the charge.

Formula used : Q=I\times t

where,

Q = charge = ?

I = current = 10 A

t = time = 10 min = 600 sec      (1 min = 60 sec)

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

Q=10A\times 600s=6000C

Now we have to calculate the number of atoms deposited.

As, 1 atom require charge to deposited = 2\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})  

Number of atoms deposited = \frac{(6000)}{2\times(1.6\times 10^{-19})}=1.875\times 10^{22} atoms

Now we have to calculate the number of moles deposited.

Number of moles deposited = \frac{(1.875\times 10^{22})}{(6.022\times 10^{23})}=0.03113 moles

Now we have to calculate the mass of copper deposited.

1 mole of Copper has mass = 63.5 g  

Mass of Copper Deposited = 63.5\times 0.03113 =1.98g

Therefore, the mass of copper deposit is, 1.98 grams
