If you are referring to nuclear power plants and radioactive materials, then there is a high necessity to be cautious and stay safe because only by being safe you can prevent accidents like those caused in Ukraine and Japan. Unlike other types of power plants whose destruction in case of an accident can relatively easily be contained, nuclear power plants are extremely difficult to manage if things go out of hand since you can destroy the air around it, the water, the food by ruining the soil, and many other things.

A monatomic ideal gas expands slowly to twice its original volume, doing 340 JJ of work in the process. Part APart complete Find
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

A) if the system is isothermal then all the heat added to the system will be used to do work (since none is used to raise the temperature of the gas). The heat added will be equal to the work done = 340 J

B) change in internal energy of the system of the process is isothermal will be zero, since there is no rise in temperature.

C) an adiabatic process is one involving no heat loss or gain through the system, Therefore heat gain will be zero

D) if the process is adiabatic then there is no heat loss or gain through the system and hence there is no change in temperature. Change in internal energy will be zero

E) if the process is isobaric then, there is no work done and the total heat to the system is equal zero

F) if there is no work done, and no heat added, then the internal energy will be equal zero.

Determine the type of reaction for the following equation:<br> C2H6 + O2à H2O + CO2
valkas [14]

Answer:

The type of reaction for the following equation is combustion equation.

Explanation:

Combustion reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide gas and water molecule.

\text{hydrocarbon}+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

The reaction given to us:

C_2H_6 + \frac{7}{2}O_2\rightarrow 3H_2O + 2CO_2

When 1 mole of ethane reacts with 7/2 moles of oxygen gas it gives 3 moles of water and 2 moles of carbon dioxide gas.

The type of reaction for the following equation is combustion equation.

An order is given to administer 57 g of lactulose syrup, often used for treating complications of liver disease. The suspension
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer : The volume given to the patient should be, 85.5 mL

Explanation :

As we are given that the suspension contains 10g/15mL.

Now we have to determine the volume should be given to the patient.

As, 10 grams of lactulose syrup needed 15 mL volume of solution

So, 57 grams of lactulose syrup needed \frac{57g}{10g}\times 15mL=85.5mL volume of solution

Thus, the volume given to the patient should be, 85.5 mL

Generally, when going from left to right across a period on the periodic table:
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Atomic radio increases as number of valence electrons increase. Hence the first and fourth statement are wrong. Electronegativity is highest for elements on the TOP right hand corner of the periodic table so the third statement is wrong. Hence the answer is the third statement
