Answer:

b Fuel for fusion reactors can be extracted from ocean water.  

Explanation:

The fuel is deuterium, which makes up 0.02% of the hydrogen atoms in water. The oceans contain more than a billion cubic kilometres of water, so that's a lot of deuterium.

a is wrong. The fuel for fusion reactors is deuterium.

c is wrong.  There is much research, but there are no large-scale fusion reactors in operation.

d is wrong. Fusion reactors do not produce radioactive waste as spent fuel. Most of the radioactive waste would be the reactor core itself.

The term “ average atomic mass “ is a ______average so is calculator different Lee from a normal average
hoa [83]

Average atomic mass of an element is a sum of the product of the isotope mass and its relative abundance.

For example: Chlorine has 2 isotopes with the following abundances

Cl(35): Atomic mass = 34.9688 amu; Abundance = 75.78%

Cl(37): Atomic mass = 36.9659 amu; Abundance = 24.22 %

Average atomic mass of Cl = 34.9688(0.7578) + 36.9659(0.2422) =

                                             = 26.4993 + 8.9531 = 35.4524 amu

Thus, the term “ average atomic mass “ is a <u>weighted</u> average so it is calculated differently from a normal average

Determine the [h3o+] of a 0.210 m solution of formic acid.
Nataly [62]
When the Pka for formic acid = 3.77
and Pka = -㏒ Ka 
   3.77 = -㏒ Ka
∴Ka = 1.7x10^-4 

when Ka = [H+][HCOO-}/[HCOOH]

when we have Ka = 1.7x10^-4 &[HCOOH] = 0.21 m
so by substitution: by using ICE table value
1.7x10^-4 = X*X / (0.21-X)
(1.7x10^-4)*(0.21-X) = X^2      by solving this equation for X

∴X = 0.0059
∴[H+] = 0.0059
∴PH= -㏒ [H+]
       = -㏒ 0.0059
       = 2.23
