What is a problem commonly associated with nuclear power facilities?

1 answer:

5 0

(1) False, lots of energy is actually produced from nuclear fuel, if we didn't get much then we probably wouldn't use it
(2) False, its burning coal that contributes to acid rain, since it contains sulfur
(3) False again, we can control the reaction with aptly named control rods, which are typically made of boron, to absorb some of the neutrons flying around in the chain reaction
(4) True, radioactive waste is very difficult to dispose of, and is also very dangerous. Sources of radiation can remain so for millions of years

The ratio of carbon atoms to hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms in a molecule of dicyclohexyl maleate is 4 to 6 to 1. what is its mo

Semenov [28]

Knowing the ratio between atoms we can write an empirical formula:

C4H6O 

we compute the molar mass of this single formula: 
4x12 + 6 x 1 + 16 x1 = 70 g / mol 

Now, as we know the actual molar mas being 280 g/mol, we divide this number by 70 and we get the ratio between empirical formula and molecular actual formula: 

280 / 70 = 4 

This means that actual molecular formula is: 

(C4H6O)4 or 

C16H24O4

Given the balanced equation:

Marta_Voda [28]

The answer is (2) A bond is formed and energy is released. The left side of equation is I atom and the right side of equation is I2 molecule. So the bond is formed between I atom to form I2 molecule. And forming bond will release energy while breaking bond will absorb energy.

leva [86]

Answer:

A) carbon - 2

B) cobalt - 3

C) sulfur - 2

D) fluorine - 1

E) titanium - 2

F) germanium - 2

Explanation:

Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity:-

Firstly, every orbital which is present in the sublevel is singly occupied and then the orbital is doubly occupied.

(A) Carbon.
