Colin is writing a story in which a spy damages a fusion nuclear reactor, the reaction runs out of control, and the reactor expl

odes like a fusion bomb. Why is his idea for the story unlikely to be accurate? The reaction would quickly stop once the temperature and pressure dropped. The reaction would stop soon after the source of neutrons was removed. A working fusion nuclear reactor does not exist. Fission, not fusion, is used in bombs.

What is the number of moles and the mass of Mg required to react with 7.50g of HCl and produce MgCl2 and H2? 1.25 g 2.50 g 5.00
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The correct option is: 2.50 g

Explanation:

Reaction involved: Mg(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → MgCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)

Molar mass: Mg = 24.305 g/mol, HCl = 36.461 g/mol

In the given reaction, 1 mole Mg reacts with 2 moles HCl.

Given: mass of HCl = 7.50 g

So, the number of moles of HCl = given mass ÷ molar mass = 7.50 g ÷ 36.461 g/mol = 0.2057 moles

Therefore, the<u> number of moles of Mg</u> that reacts with 0.2057 mole HCl = 0.2057 ÷ 2 = 0.1028 moles

Therefore, <u>the mass of Mg in grams</u> = molar mass × number of moles = 24.305 g/mol × 0.1028 mole = 2.5 g

Refrigerators are usually kept at about 5°C, while room temperature is about 20°C. if you were to take an empty sealed 2 liter s
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

c) No, because Celsius is not an absolute temperature scale

Explanation:

converting  5 oC to kelvin which is the absolute temperature scale gives = 273 + 5 = 278 K

and converting 20 oC to kelvin = 20 + 273 = 293 K

the ratio = 278 / 293 = 0.94 approx 1 not 4

How can you make a saturated solution from a supersaturated solution?
Lerok [7]

Answer:

warming up the solution.

Explanation:

  • A saturated solution is a chemical solution containing the maximum concentration of a solute dissolved in the solvent. ​The additional solute will not dissolve in a saturated solution.

  • Supersaturated solution is a solution that contains more of the dissolved material than could be dissolved by the solvent under normal circumstances.

  • A saturated solution can become supersaturated when it is cooled.

  • Also, we can form a saturated solution from a supersaturated solution via warming up the solution:

<em>The solubility of solid solutes in liquid solvents increases as the solvent is warmed up.</em>

Answer:

(A) 0.4M NaOH

Explanation:

The 20M NaOH caustic soda is diluted from 10mL to 500mL, that is:

500mL / 10mL = Is diluted 50 times.

That means we can solve the new concentration of the diluted solution dividing the stock concentration (20M) 50 times:

20M / 50 = 0.4M NaOH is the concentration of the diluted NaOH solution.

Right answer is:

<h3>(A) 0.4M NaOH</h3>
