*WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!<br> Why is it difficult for us to use fusion reactions to produce energy?
kolbaska11 [484]
Fusion occurs constantly on our sun, which produces most of its energy via the nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. Neither do fusion reactions produce the large amounts of dangerous radioactive waste that fission reactions do. That's why it's such a dreamy source of energy.

Exactly 1.0 mol N2O4 is placed in an empty 1.0-L container and is allowed to reach equilibriumdescribed by the equation N2O4(g)↔
Vilka [71]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 1.1

Solution :  Given,

Initial moles of N_2O_4 = 1.0 mole

Initial volume of solution = 1.0 L

First we have to calculate the concentration N_2O_4.

\text{Concentration of }N_2O_4=\frac{\text{Moles of }N_2O_4}{\text{Volume of solution}}

\text{Concentration of }N_2O_4=\frac{1.0moles}{1.0L}=1.0M

The given equilibrium reaction is,

                           N_2O_4(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO_2(g)

Initially                      c                 0

At equilibrium   (c-c\alpha)           2c\alpha

The expression of K_c will be,

K_c=\frac{[NO_2]^2}{[N_2O_4]}

K_c=\frac{(2c\alpha)^2}{(c-c\alpha)}

where,

\alpha = degree of dissociation = 40 % = 0.4

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

K_c=\frac{(2c\alpha)^2}{(c-c\alpha)}

K_c=\frac{(2\times 1\times 0.4)^2}{(1-1\times 0.4)}

K_c=1.066\aprrox 1.1

Therefore, the value of equilibrium constant for this reaction is, 1.1

Draw the alkyl bromide(s) you would use in a malonic ester synthesis of ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate
Rudik [331]

The structure of the alkyl bromides used in a malonic ester synthesis of ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate are as drawn in the attached image.

<h3>Ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate by Malonic ester synthesis.</h3>

The malonic ester synthesis is a chemical reaction characterized by the alkylation of diethyl malonate or a similar ester of malonic acid at the carbon alpha (directly adjacent) to both carbonyl groups, and subsequently converted to a substituted acetic acid.

Hence, it follows from the structure of Ethyl 2-methyl-4-pentenoate that the alkyl bromides used are Ethyl bromide and methyl bromide.

When we have stomach disorders, we take antacids to solve the problem? how does it help? support your answer with an equation.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Antacid Neutralises the acid in the stomach.

Explanation:

Antacid contains ingredients such as aluminum, calcium, magnesium and sodium bicarbonate which act as bases. These help neutralise the pH levels in the stomach and makes the contents of the stomach less corrosive.
