Answer:

They are both nuclear reactions that produce energy.

  • Fission is the splitting of heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei.
  • Fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together (this process releases a vast amount of energy)

Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy

The following reaction does not proceed to a product: H2O + Cu --> no reaction. Why is that?
Anettt [7]
I think the correct answer would be because copper has a lower activity than hydrogen and cannot replace the bonds in it. Substances that are not oxidizing do not react with copper since the redox potentials are very low. Hope this answers the question.

A weak acid, HF, is in solution with dissolved sodium fluoride, NaF. If HCl is added, which ion will react with the extra hydrog
kumpel [21]

Answer:

c. F1-

Explanation:

In this chemical reaction the expression is:

HF  +  NaF   →  NaHF2

The ion that always keep the negative charge is the fluorine with a -1, if in this mixture there is more positive ions (H1+) the negative ion (F1-) will join with them.

Remember that also the Cl1- will be free, but the fluorine is more reactive than the fluorine.

The addition of an inert gas has no effect on the equilibrium position of a gaseous reaction because ______. Multiple choice que
boyakko [2]

Inert gas does not affect the equilibrium position:

It is because the partial pressures of the reaction components remain the same.

What is Inert Gas?

  • Under a given set of conditions, an inert gas is a gas that does not undergo chemical reactions.
  • The noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon) were previously known as "inert gases" due to their perceived lack of involvement in any biochemical processes.
  • Because inert gases are non-reactive, they do not affect equilibrium partial pressures and thus do not affect volume.
  • An inert gas does not react with the reactants or products; it does not change the concentration of the products and reactants. Furthermore, because the volume is constant, the concentrations are unaffected. As a result, this does not affect equilibrium.

The equilibrium position won't change if an inert gas is added. A volume change won't change the equilibrium position if the total moles of gas in the products and reactants are the same. When the volume is reduced, the process changes to create fewer moles of gas.
