We know that

F = k * q1 * q2 / d^2

Force of attraction F

K = 8.99 x 10^9

q1 = charge on Mg = +2  = 2 X 1.9 x 10^-19 C

q2 = charge on O = -2 = 2 X 1.9 x 10^-19 C

d = distance between two ions = 72 + 140 pm = 212 pm

Force = 8.99 x 10^9 X 2 X 1.9 x 10^-19 C X 2 X 1.9 x 10^-19 C / (212 X 10^-12 )^2

Force = 0.002889 X 10^-5 = 2.889 X 10^-8 N

Which describes the products created from fission reactions? Question 3 options:
Ipatiy [6.2K]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nuclear fission reactions are a type of nuclear reactions in which larger nuclei breaks apart into two or more smaller fragment releasing alpha, gamma of beta particles.

There are 3 types of particles that can be released during this process:

1. Alpha particles: These particles are released when a nuclei undergoes alpha-decay process.

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}\textrm{Y}+_2^4\alpha

2. Beta particles: These particles are released when a nuclei undergoes beta-minus decay process.

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^{A}\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta

3. Gamma radiations: these radiations are released when an unstable nuclei gives off excess energy by a process of spontaneous electromagnetic process.

_Z^A\textrm{X}^*\rightarrow _Z^A\textrm{X}+_0^0\gamma

Hence, any of these particles can be released during the process of fission reaction with smaller atoms.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

Which of the following is altered by a catalyst?
Vika [28.1K]
<span>In chemistry, a catalyst can speed up the reaction (or make it initiate easier) by altering the activation energy, lowering it enough to allow the reactants to react more easily. Some negative catalysts or inhibitors can do the same by increasing the activation energy.

Explain the similarities and differences between putting a beaker of ethanoic acid in the refrigerator and mixing it with sodium
frez [133]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

When a beaker of ethanoic acid is placed in the refrigerator, its temperature drops and the vessel feels cool.

Now, when we mix ethanoic acid and sodium carbonate, an endothermic reaction occurs, fizzing is observed as carbon dioxide is given off and heat is lost to the surroundings causing the reaction vessel to feel cool to touch.

The difference between putting ethanoic acid in the refrigerator and adding  sodium carbonate to the solution is that, in the former, no new substance is formed. The substance remains ethanoic acid when retrieved from the refrigerator. In the later case, new substances are formed. The substance is no more ethanoic acid because a chemical reaction has taken place.
