Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A miscible solution is defined as the one in which two or more than two components are soluble with each other.

So, when hexane is added to heptane then both of them will mix with each other and hence they are miscible. This mixing will lead to formation of more number of ions into the solution as a result, more will be the disorder present in the solution.

As entropy is the degree of randomness present.

Hence, we can conclude that a solution of hexane and heptane will lead to an increase in entropy.

Which of the following lists the correct symbol for the ion that tin forms when it loses 2 electrons, the correct classification
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf Option \ A}

Explanation:

The symbol for TIN is Sn.

When Sn loses 2 electrons, it gets a double positive charge ( +2 ) and becomes \sf Sn ^{+2}.

It becomes a cation.

The name of Ion is Tin ( II ) Ion.

Laser fusion Group of answer choices uses chemical reactions to produce energy uses nuclear reactions to produce energy implodes
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Uses nuclear reactions to produce energy

Implodes a fuel pellet

Explanation:

Laser fusion is a method of initiating nuclear fusion reactions through heating, and compressing fuel pellets containing deuterium and tritium using high energy density laser beams. Lase fusion is also known as inertial confinement fusion and the energy produced by the process is known as Laser Inertial Fusion Energy, LIFE.

During the process of laser fusion, small pellets of deuterium-tritium (DT) isotopes mixture are fed into a blast chamber where they are compressed to high densities using a number of amplified laser beams in the chamber.

The high energy density of the beams as well as the heat produced due to compression, induces the thermonuclear explosion ignition resulting in the production of high energetic products such as charged particles, x-rays and neutrons. The energy produced is absorbed and stored as heat in a blanket that is then used in a steam thermal cycle to generate electrical power.

There are two methods of compression of the DT pellet: direct and indirect-drive laser fusions.

However, there are a number of limitations to energy production by this process. One limitation is that the process is extremely inefficient in energy energy production. Also, the heat produced by the flashtubes results innthe deformation of the laser glass.
