<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is false.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic fission reactions are defined as reactions in which nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller nuclei. These reactions are carried out in nuclear reactors. The temperature range for the reactors are around 300°C.

Atomic fusion reactions are the reactions in which nucleus of two or more atoms fuse together to form one large nuclei. These reactions require a huge amount of energy to occur. The temperature required by these reactions are about one million kelvins.

Hence, the given statement is False.

What is the volume of water in 150ml of the 35% of sucrose with a specific gravity of 1.115?

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The volume of the water is 108.71 mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of water =150 mL = 0.150 L

concentration of sucrose solution 35 % w/w this means in 100 grams of water we have 35 grams of sucrose

specific gravity =1.115

Step 2: Calculate the density of the solution

Density = specific gravity * density of water

Density of solution = 1.115 * 1g/ mL

Density of solution = 1.115 g/ mL

Step 3: Calculate mass of the solution

Mass of solution = density ¨volume

Mass of solution = 1.115 g/ mL * 150 mL

Mass of solution = 167.25 grams

Step 4: Calculate mass of sucrose

35 % = 0.35 * 167.25 grams

Mass sucrose = 58.54 grams

Step 5: Calculate mass of water

Mass of water = mass of sample - mass of sucrose

Mass of water = 167.25 - 58.54 = 108.71 grams

Step 6: Calculate volume of water

Volume = mass / density

Volume = 108.71 grams / 1g/ mL

Volume = 108.71 mL = 0.10871 L

The volume of the water is 108.71 mL

An arctic weather balloon is filled with 27.8 L of helium gas inside a prep shed. The temperature inside the shed is . The ballo

Liula [17]

The question is incomplete, here is a complete question.

An arctic weather balloon is filled with 27.8 L of helium gas inside a prep shed. The temperature inside the shed is 13 ⁰C. The balloon is then taken outside, where the temperature is -9 ⁰C. Calculate the new volume of the balloon. You may assume the pressure on the balloon stays constant at exactly 1 atm. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer : The new volume of the balloon is 25.7 L

Explanation :

Charles's Law : It is defined as the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.

$V\propto T$

or,

$\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = 27.8 L

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = $13^oC=273+13=286K$

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = $-9^oC=273+(-9)=264K$

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$\frac{27.8L}{286K}=\frac{V_2}{264K}$

$V_2=25.7L$

Therefore, the new volume of the balloon is 25.7 L

You are running a lemonade stand with your friend. You prepared 10 liters of 0.7 molarity lemonade, but your friend did online r

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

add 7.5L of water

Explanation:

M1×V1=M2×V2

M is molarity, V is volume

0.7 × 10 = 0.4 × V2

V2= 17.5L

vol. of water to add= 17.5 - 10 = 7.5L

Lose electrons - electrons want to fill their outer valence shell, so sometimes instead of gaining it is easier to lose some and have a filled outer shell
