What must happen to uranium before it can be used as a fuel source?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Otrada [13]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Uranium must be purified before it is used as a fuel source

Explanation:

The purer the uranium sample, the more the concentration of uranium in the fuel is.

Whenever uranium is extracted from nature, it contains a lot of impurities. Only a few special nuclear reactors can utilize uranium in this raw state. most of the others have to get uranium to become about 3% pure before they begin using it.

To do this, uranium has to be passed through a series of chemical reactions all with the aim of extracting the other compounds that may be present in the fuel.

Based on the molecular structures of chloromethane and methane shown, a student makes the claim that a pure sample of chlorometh
goblinko [34]

Answer:

Yes, chloromethane has stronger intermolecular forces than a pure sample of methane has.

Explanation:

In both methane and chloromethane, there are weak dispersion forces. However, in methane, the dispersion forces are the only intermolecular forces present. Also, the lower molar mass of methane means that it has a lower degree of dispersion forces.

For chloromethane, there is in addition to dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interaction arising from the polar C-Cl bond in the molecule. Also the molar mass of chloromethane  is greater than that of methane implying a greater magnitude of dispersion forces in operation.

Therefore, chloromethane has stronger intermolecular forces than a pure sample of methane has.
