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.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

$a=0.4\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

1. Given that,

Initial speed of a bicycle, u = 4 m/s

The final speed of a bicycle, v = 6 m/s

Time, t = 6 s

We need to find the acceleration of the bicycle. We know that, acceleration is equal to the change in speed divided by time taken. So,

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{6-4}{5}\\\\a=0.4\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the bicycle is equal to $0.4\ m/s^2$ .

All of the following reactions can be described as displacement reactions except:____________.

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

The reaction that is not a displacement reaction from all the options is $C_6H_6_{(l)} + Cl_{2(g)} --> C_6H_5Cl_{(l)} + HCl_{(g)}$

In a displacement reaction, a part of one of the reactants is replaced by another reactant. In single displacement reactions, one of the reactants completely displaces and replaces part of another reactant. In double displacement reaction, cations and anions in the reactants switch partners to form products.

<em>Options a, c, d, and e involves the displacement of a part of one of the reactants by another reactant while option b does not.</em>

Correct option = b.

Answer:

$FeCl_{2} +H_{2} S->FeS + 2HCl$

Explanation:

I am assuming that we have to balance this equation. On the left side, we have one Fe, 2 H, 2 Cl, and 1 S. On the right side, we have 1 Fe, 1 H, 1 Cl, and 1 S. Adding a 2 as a coefficient in front of the HCl on the right side will make 2 H and 2 Cl instead, balancing the overall equation.
