Which letter on the graph above represents fusion?

Chemistry

Answer:

The figure here is missing, so we cannot say what is the corresponding letter; however we can describe what nuclear fusion is.

Nuclear fusion is a nuclear process in which light nuclei fuse together into a heavier nucleus. In the reaction, the total mass of the initial nuclei is less than the total mass of the final nucleus, so part of the mass has been converted into energy, according to the equation:

\Delta E=c^2 \Delta m

where

\Delta E is the energy released

c is the speed of light

\Delta m is the mass defect, which is the mass difference between reactants and products.

Since the factor c^2 is very large, we can see that the amount of energy released by a process of nuclear fusion is huge.

An example of nuclear fusion is the fusion of hydrogen nuclei into  helium. This process occurs in the core of the stars, and it is the main process through which stars produce energy. In order to occur, the temperature inside the core must be at the order of several million degrees, because the nuclei must overcome the electrostatic repulsion between them, so that they can come close enough to fuse together: for this reason, nuclear fusion is difficult to achieve on Earth, since it is very challenging to recreate the same conditions of temperature and pressure that we have in the core of the stars.

Which of the following is a precipitation reaction? a) Zn (s) + 2 AgNO3 (aq) → 2 Ag (s) + Zn(NO 3) 2 (aq) b) 2 LiI (aq) + Hg 2(N
lawyer [7]

Answer: 2LiI(aq)+Hg_2(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Hg_2I_2(s)+2LiNO_3(aq)

Explanation:

A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place. The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.

Precipitation is a type of displacement reaction in which one the products is formed in the solid state.

2LiI(aq)+Hg_2(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Hg_2I_2(s)+2LiNO_3(aq)

Translate the world equation in skeleton equation and balance them
alexdok [17]

Answer:

The balanced equation is: H2 (g) +Cl2 (g) →2HCl (g)

Explanation:

Balancing chemical equation refers to balancing the stoichiometric coefficients on the reactants and products side. This must be done as the chemical equation obeys the law of conservation of mass and momentum.

The representation of a chemical reaction in the form of substances is known as a chemical equation. The equation in which the number of atoms of all the molecules is equal on both sides of the equation is known as a balanced chemical equation. The Law of conservation of mass governs the balancing of a chemical equation.

Given chemical equation

The balanced chemical equation for the hydrogen + chlorine -> Hydrogen Chloride.

H2 + Cl2 → 2HCl

The equation is balanced as on the reactants side there are two hydrogens present and the same on the products side. For chlorine as well the same thing goes two chlorine atoms on the reactants side and two on the products side.
