fission and fusion
Chemistry
1 answer:
Eddi Din [679]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion produces more energy with less radioactive waste compared to nuclear fission process.

  • In nuclear fission, a radioactive decay occurs in which a heavy nucleus spontaneously disintegrates into two lighter nuclei and several neutrons with the release of energy.
  • Nuclear fusion occurs when small atomic nuclei combines into larger ones with the release of a large amount of energy.
  • Instability of a nuclide is enough to start up a nuclear fission reaction. In some instances, a heavy nuclide is bombarded with another nuclide.
  • In nuclear fusion, the activation energy required to start up is very great.

Nuclear wastes emanating from nuclear fusion process is least compared to that of nuclear fission.

Nuclear fusion produces more energy  compared to nuclear fission process.

If he(g) has an average kinetic energy of 8750 j/mol under certain conditions, what is the root mean square speed of cl2(g) mole
saw5 [17]
<span>The root mean square speed is given by V_rms = âšRT/M where r, t, and m are the rate constant, temperature and molar mass the gas Average molar kinetic energy of the gas E = 1/2 M * (V_rms)^2 = 8750 ms/1 So (V_rms)^2 = (2 * 8750) / M Molar mass of 2 chlorine atoms in kg is 2 * 35 * 10^(-3) Hence we have (V_rms)^2 = (2 * 8750)/ (2 * 35 * 10^(-3)) (V_rms)^2 = 8750/0.035 = 250000 So V_rms = âš 250000 = 500</span>

A student increases the temperature of a 417cm³ balloon from 278k to 231k. Assuming constant pressure, what should the new volum
viva [34]
Charles law states that volume of gas is directly proportional to temperature at constant pressure 
V/T = k
where V - volume , T - temperature and k - constant
\frac{V1}{T1} =  \frac{V2}{T2}
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation 

in the question it states that the temperature has been increased from 278 K to 231 K but it should actually be temperature is decreased from 278 K to 308 K
substituting the values in the equation 
\frac{417cm^{3} }{278K} =  \frac{V}{308 K}
V = 462 cm³
the answer should be D. 462 cm³
