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.

3. A student measured 15.0 grams of ice in a beaker. The beaker was then
gregori [183]

Answer:

The heat that was used to melt the 15.0 grams of ice at 0°C is 4,950 Joules

Explanation:

The mass of ice in the beaker = 15.0 grams

The initial temperature of the ice = 0°C

The final temperature of the ice = 0°C

The latent heat of fusion of ice = 330 J/g

The heat required to melt a given mass of ice = The mass of the ice to be melted × The latent heat of fusion of ice

Therefore, the heat, Q, required to melt 15.0 g of ice = 15.0 g × 330 J/g = 4,950 J

The heat that was used to melt the 15.0 grams of ice = 4,950 Joules.
