Answer:

Nuclear reaction.

Explanation:

Nuclear reactions are used in generation of heat in some power plants and thus those are known as nuclear power plants.

The fuel used in nuclear reactor is Uranium-235, which undergoes fussion reaction to give large amount of energy. this energy is in generation of steam in such plants.

thus nuclear fission is the main reaction in the nuclear power plants.

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

15.35 g of (NH₄)₃PO₄

Explanation:

First we need to look at the chemical reaction:

3 NH₃ + H₃PO₄ → (NH₄)₃PO₄

Now we calculate the number of moles of ammonia (NH₃):

number of moles = mass / molecular wight

number of moles = 5.24 / 17 = 0.308 moles of NH₃

Now from the chemical reaction we devise the following reasoning:

if         3 moles of NH₃ are produce 1 mole of (NH₄)₃PO₄

then   0.308 moles of NH₃ are produce X moles of (NH₄)₃PO₄

X = (0.308 × 1) / 3 = 0.103 moles of (NH₄)₃PO₄

mass = number of moles × molecular wight

mass = 0.103 × 149 = 15.35 g of (NH₄)₃PO₄

Why is studying light and electrons important for chemistry and understanding the universe?
Brut [27]

Explanation :

The study of light and electrons are important for chemistry & universe.

   As we know, everything is made up of particles even light & universe also. The particles are made of atoms and that atoms are made up of electrons, protons & neutrons.

   An electron is one of the most important type of subatomic particles. Electrons combine with the proton to form atom. These electrons, protons & neutrons play a vital role in chemistry and universe.

   The importance of an electron is that when two atoms react with each other or approach each other, their outermost shells come into contact first and these outermost shells electrons are involved in the chemical reaction.

    Also important for chemical reactions, creating bonds, for electricity and the understanding of electrons has allowed for the better understanding of some forces which are in our universe such as electromagnetic force.

    We know that the light is act as particle nature and it is a part of universe. As we know that chemists are only responsible for the chemical's study. Chemists cannot study the whole universe that is why they study light and the light is important because nothing would be able to survive.

    The studying of light is important for the photoelectric effect, absorption, bio-molecules synthesis, vitamin D synthesis, vision, colors, drying & evaporation, sterilization, solar energy, spectroscopy, signal system and also for electron excitation.

Balance the equations.<br> Zn+ HCl →<br> ZnCl2 +
motikmotik

Answer:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

Explanation:

Zn + HCl → ZnCl2 +

The complete equation is given below:

Zn+ HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

Now we can balance the equation by doing the following:

There are 2 atoms of Cl and 2 atoms of H on the left. This can be balanced by putting 2 in front of HCl as shown below:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2
