Both the two are atomic responses that deliver vitality, however, the applications are not the same. Parting is the part of a substantial, flimsy core into two lighter cores, and the combination is the procedure where two light cores join together discharging tremendous measures of vitality.

Answer :

Nuclear fusion : It is defined as a process which involves the conversion of two small nuclei to form a heavy nuclei and some amount of energy is also releases.

Nuclear fission : It is defined as a process which involves the conversion of a heavier nuclei (which is an unstable nuclei) into two or more small nuclei (which is a stable nuclei) and a large amount of energy is also releases.

The difference between the nuclear fusion and nuclear fission is that, the energy is given in the nuclear fusion reaction but the energy is releases in the nuclear fission reaction.

In nuclear fusion, a small amount of energy is released but in nuclear fission, more amount of energy is released.

The solubility of oxygen in lakes high in the Rocky Mountains is affected by the altitude. If the solubility of O2 from the air

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

$1.75\cdot 10^{-4} M$

Explanation:

Henry's law states that the solubility of a gas is directly proportional to its partial pressure. The equation may be written as:

$S = k_H p^o$

Where $k_H$ is Henry's law constant.

Our strategy will be to identify the Henry's law constant for oxygen given the initial conditions and then use it to find the solubility at different conditions.

Given initially:

$S_1 = 2.67\cdot 10^{-4} M$

Also, at sea level, we have an atmospheric pressure of:

$p = 1.00 atm$

Given mole fraction:

$\chi_{O_2} = 0.209$

According to Dalton's law of partial pressures, the partial pressure of oxygen is equal to the product of its mole fraction and the total pressure:

$p^o = \chi_{O_2} p$

Then the equation becomes:

$S_1 = k_H \chi_{O_2} p$

Solve for $k_H$ :

$k_H = \frac{S_1}{\chi_{O_2} p} = \frac{2.67\cdot 10^{-4} M}{0.209\cdot 1.00 atm} = 0.001278 M/atm$

Now we're given that at an altitude of 12,000 ft, the atmospheric pressure is now:

$p = 0.657 atm$

Apply Henry's law using the constant we found:

$S_2 = k_H \chi_{O_2} p = 0.001278 M/atm\cdot 0.209\cdot 0.657 atm = 1.75\cdot 10^{-4} M$

A 25.0 mL sample of sulfuric acid is completely neutralized by adding 32.8 mL of 0.116 mol/L ammonia solution. Ammonium sulfate

Paul [167]

Answer:

0.08 mol L-1

Explanation:

Sulfuric acid Formula: H2SO4

Ammonia Formula: NH3

Ammonium sulfate Formula: (NH₄)₂SO₄

H2SO4 + 2NH3 = 2NH4+ + SO4 2-

H2SO4 + 2NH3 = (NH₄)₂SO₄

H2SO4 = (1/2)x (32.8 x 10^-3 L x 0.116 mol L-1)/25 x 10^-3 L

= 0.08 mol L-1

A quantity of 0.225 g of a metal M (molar mass = 27.0 g/mol) liberated 0.303 L of molecular hydrogen (measured at 17°C and 741 m

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Oxide of M is $M_2O_3$ and sulfate of $M_2(SO_4)_3$

Explanation:

0.303 L of molecular hydrogen gas measured at 17°C and 741 mmHg.

Let moles of hydrogen gas be n.

Temperature of the gas ,T= 17°C =290 K

Pressure of the gas ,P= 741 mmHg= 0.9633 atm

Volume occupied by gas , V = 0.303 L

Using an ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

$n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9633 atm\times 0.303 L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 290 K}=0.01225 mol$

Moles of hydrogen gas produced = 0.01225 mol

$2M+2xHCl\rightarrow 2MCl_x+xH_2$

Moles of metal = $\frac{0.225 g}{27.0 g/mol}=8.3333 mol$

So, 8.3333 mol of metal M gives 0.01225 mol of hydrogen gas.

$\frac{8.3333}{0.01225 mol}=\frac{2}{x}$

x = 2.9 ≈ 3

$2M+6HCl\rightarrow 2MCl_3+3H_2$

$MCl_3\rightarrow M^{3+}+Cl^-$

Formulas for the oxide and sulfate of M will be:

Oxide of M is $M_2O_3$ and sulfate of $M_2(SO_4)_3$ .

The reaction 2a + b --> c + d has an activation energy of 80.0 kj/mol. at 320°c, the rate constant k = 1.80 x 10-2 l mol-1 s-

Naddik [55]

To determine the k for the second condition, we use the Arrhenius equation which relates the rates of reaction at different temperatures. We do as follows:

ln k1/k2 = E / R (1/T2 - 1/T1) where E is the activation energy and R universal gas constant.

ln 1.80x10^-2 / k2 = 80000 / 8.314 ( 1/723.15 - 1/593.15)

k2 = 0.3325 L / mol-s
