Why is not used at nuclear plant as a soverce for electrical energy

7 0

The biggest reason is radioactive wastes. Nuclear power generated radioactive wastes like Uranimum, plutonium and amercium that inhibits gene expression and causes cancer to the environment. Nuclear plants use to release these wastes into the oceans, and it causes fishes to exhibit gender change, 3 eyes, 2 tails etc. The impact on human shows signs of serious blood, liver and lung cancers.

There are currently no way to get rid of these wastes as they take hundred thousands of years to decompose.

Another reason is they cause a small amount of green gas emission. Releases CO2 to the sky. They exhibit radioactive gas emission as well (causes cancer) .

Which of these oxides will likely form a colored solution when dissolved in water?

Alik [6]

Mn₂O

Explanation:

The oxide that will most likely form colored solutions is Mn₂O.

This is because most transition metals form colored compounds. Manganese is a transition metal belonging to the d-block on the periodic table.

Other examples of transition metals are scandium, titanium, iron, copper, cobalt, nickel, zinc
They belong to the d-block on the periodic table.
They have variable oxidation states.
Most of their solutions are always colored.

A volume of 25.36 ± 0.05 mL 25.36±0.05 mL of HNO 3 HNO3 solution was required for complete reaction with 0.8311 ± 0.0007 g 0.831

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

MOLARITY= 0.3092mol/l

ABSOLUTE UNCERTAINTY= 0.000873

Explanation:

The equation of reaction is

2HNO3 + Na2CO3 ⟶ 2NaNO3 + H2O + CO2.

QUESTION1: CALCULATION FOR MOLARITY;

Molarity= gram mole of solute ÷ liters of solution

Where;

Mole of solute= mass ÷ molar mass

Therefore;

Mole of solute= 0.8311g ÷ 105.988g/mol= 0.0078515mol

MOLARITY= 0.0078415mol ÷ 25.36ml = 0.0003092mol/ml = 0.3092mol/l

This is the Molarity of the solution

QUESTION2: CALCULATION FOR ABSOLUTE UNCERTAINTY;

Uncertainty (u) =√([0.05 ÷ 25.36]^2 + [0.001 ÷ 105.988]^2 + [0.0007 ÷ 0.8311]^2) × Molarity

Solving brackets gives

(0.00197161+0.00000943503+0.00084226) ×Molarity

Adding up gives

0.002823×Molarity

Therefore;

ABSOLUTE UNCERTAINTY= 0.002823×0.3092= 0.000873
