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

A compound is formed when 171.2 g of carbon reacts with 28.8 g of hydrogen. What is the mass percent of hydrogen in the compound
IgorLugansk [536]
Following the law of conservation of mass, the mass percent of hydrogen in the resulting compound is 14.4%(wt/wt). This is assuming that all of the carbon reacts with all of the hydrogen. The solution is as follows:

mass % = mass hydrogen*100/total mass = 28.8*100/(28.8+171.2) = 14.4%

molecules with a plane of symmetry between the chiral centers are achiral and meso. identify which of the following molecules ar
maks197457 [2]

Molecules with a plane of symmetry between the chiral centers are achiral and meso. From the given molecules (Picture attached) only (A) compound 1 is meso.

When compounds possess a plane of symmetry between the chiral centers they are called achiral or meso compounds. Among the given compounds (A) compound 1 have a plane of symmetry. So we can say compound one is a meso or achiral compound. Compounds two, three, and four have no plane of symmetry, as you can see in the structures attached. So all other compounds (compound 2, compound 3, and compound 4) except compound one are not meso or achiral.

You can also learn about meso compounds from the following question:

What is the poH of a 3.67 x 10-5 M OH solution and is it acidic, basic, or neutral?
Anni [7]

Answer:

The pOH is  4, 44 and the solution is basic.

Explanation:

The pOH is a measure of the concentration of OH (hydroxyl) ions in the solution.

The pOH is calculated as :

pOH = -log (OH-)= -log (3.67 x 10-5 )= 4, 44. In this case, the solution is basic.

The p0H scale ranges from values of 0 to 14 (less than 7.0 is basic and greater than 7.0 is acidic, a pH = 7.0 is neutral)
