Answer:
Mass is lost due to the conversion of mass to energy
Explanation:
The question is not complete, the complete question is given as:
⇒ 
total mass equals 236.053 u total mass equals 235.868 u
Which statement explains the energy term in this reaction? (1) Mass is gained due to the conversion of mass to energy. (2) Mass is gained due to the conversion of energy to mass. (3) Mass is lost due to the conversion of mass to energy. (4) Mass is lost due to the conversion of energy to mass.
Answer: From Einstein’s equation E = mc², when a radioisotope element undergoes fission or fusion in a nuclear reaction, it loses a tiny amount of mass.This mass lost is converted to energy.
The law of conservation of energy holds for this type of reaction (i.e the sum of mass and energy is remains the same in a nuclear reaction). Mass changes to energy, but the total amount of mass and energy combined remains the same before and after a nuclear reaction.
From the reaction above, the total decrease in mass = 236.053 - 235.868 = 0.185 u
Answer:
A chemical equation is balanced when the number of each kind of atom is the same on both sides of the reaction.
Explanation:
The law of conservation of matter (except in nuclear reactions) indicates that atoms can neither be created or destroyed.
The number of atoms that are in the reactants must be the same as the number of the atoms that are in the product.
The number and types of molecules can (and will) change. The atoms that make up the molecules are rearranged but the number and kinds of atoms stay the same.
This is the balanced eq
N2 + 3H2 -> 2NH3
first you need to find mole of N2 by using
mol = mass ÷ molar mass.
mol N2= 20g ÷ (14.01×2)g/mol
=0.7138mol
then look at the coefficient between H2 and NH3.
it is N2:NH3
1:2
0.7138:0.7138×2
0.7138:1.4276 moles
moles of NH3 = 1.4276 moles
Answer:
A solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in is referred to as SATURATED. In such a solution, the concentration of solute is called SOLUBILITY . When that concentration is reported in moles per liter, it is more specifically called MOLAR SOLUBILITY. A special equilibrium constant called the SOLUBILITY PRODUCT constant is calculated from the molar concentrations of the aqueous components of the dissolution equation.
Explanation:
The solubility of a solute in a solvent is the maximum amount of solute in moles that will be dissolved in 1dm3 of the solvent at a specified temperature. Once the maximum number or concentration has been reached, the solvent can no longer take in solutes and this point in the reaction, the solution is said to be saturated. That is the composition of the saturated solution is not affected by the presence of excess solute. An unsaturated solution has a lower concentration of solute and can dissolve more solutes if added until it becomes saturated.
Solubility when reported in moles per liter is called molar solubility of the solution and it gives a more accurate measurement of yh solubility of a solution. The solubility product constant is calculated from the molar concentrations of the aqueous components of the dissolution equation. This solubility product constant explains the balance between dissolved ions from the salt and undissolved salt in a dissolution equation.
Answer:
Uranium-233- fission
Plutonium-239- fission
Plutonium-241- fission
Hydrogen-3 fusion
Hydrogen-1 fusion
Helium-3 fusion
Explanation:
In nuclear fission, heavy nuclear disintegrate into smaller nuclei when bombarded with particles such as neutrons. Fission reaction is common among nuclei having a high atomic number such as plutonium and uranium.
Fusion occurs between two light nuclei such as hydrogen or helium. It involves the combination of two lighter elements to give a heavier element with the release of tremendous amount of energy.
