Above is a potential energy curve of a reaction. It depicts conversion of reactant to product via transition state.
When a catalyst is added to the reaction system, energy barrier of reaction decreases.
It must be noted that energy barrier reaction is defined as energy difference between reactant and transition state.
In present case, energy of reactant is 200 kj, while that of transition state (in absence of catalyst) is 650 kj
Thus, energy barrier of reaction is 650 - 200 = 450 kj
<span>Hence, system must absorb 450 kj of energy for the reaction to start, if no catalyst was used</span>
there are 1023 atoms in pure aluminium
Answer:
Option C is correct.
The minimum amount of material that is needed for a fission reaction to keep going is called the critical mass.
Explanation:
Nuclear fission is the term used to describe the breakdown of the nucleus of a parent isotope into daughter nuclei.
Normally, the initial energy supplied for nuclear fission is the energy to initiate the first breakdown of the first set of radioactive isotopes that breakdown. Once that happens, the energy released from the first breakdown is enough to drive further breakdown of numerous isotopas in a manner that leads to more energy generation.
But, for this to be able to be sustained and not fizzle out, a particular amount of radioactive material to undergo nuclear fission must be present. This particular amount is termed 'critical mass'
Hope this Helps!!!
Answer:
The boiling point decreases as the volume decreases.
Explanation:
The Temperature - Volume law otherwise called as Charles law is applied, which says that the volume of the given gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to the temperature measured in Kelvin. As the volume increases, the temperature also increases, if the volume decreases, then the temperature also decreases.
As per the Charles law, here the volume is decreased from 50 ml to 25 ml so the boiling point also decreases.
