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.

Ap sublevel has 3 electrons. How should they be arranged
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

C.)One electron in each p orbital

Explanation:

In a P-sublevel with 3 electrons, they should be arranged with one electron going into each p-orbitals.

This is in accordance with the Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity.

The rule states that "electrons go into degenerate orbitals or sub-levels(p,d and f) singly before paring up".

Since the p-orbital is 3-fold degenerate with a capacity to accommodate a maximum number of 6 electrons, given 3 electrons, they will follow the Hund's rule in order to fill the orbitals.

So one electron will go in each p - orbitals easily.
