<h3><u>Answer and explanation</u>;</h3>
- <em><u>The isotope U-235 is an important common nuclear fuel because under certain conditions it can readily be split, yielding a lot of energy. It is therefore said to be 'fissile' and use the expression 'nuclear fission'.</u></em>
- <em><u>Uranium 238 on the other hand is not fissionable by thermal neutrons, but it can undergo fission from fast or high energy neutrons. Hence it is not fissile, but it is fissionable.</u></em>
- In a nuclear power station fissioning of uranium atoms replaces the burning of coal or gas. Heat created by splitting the U-235 atoms is then used to make steam which spins a turbine to drive a generator, producing electricity.
Answer:
The differemt isotopes that differ in atomic mass
Explanation:
This allows us to visually see the structure of the atoms/ molecules so we can get a better understanding of what they look like.
Answer:
c. 2NH₃ + 2H₂O + Cu²⁺ → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺
Explanation:
A net ionic equation is a chemical equation that list only the species that are involved in the reaction.
The reaction of ammonia with copper(II) sulfate CuSO₄ in water is:
2NH₃ + 2H₂O + CuSO₄ → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺ + SO₄²⁻
In an ionic equation, salts are written as ions, that means CuSO₄ must be written as Cu²⁺ + SO₄²⁻. That is:
2NH₃ + 2H₂O + Cu²⁺ +<u> SO₄²⁻</u> → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺ + <u>SO₄²⁻</u>
As in a net ionic equation you must list only the species involved in the reaction (The underlined species don't react), the net ionic equation is:
<em>c</em>. <em>2NH₃ + 2H₂O + Cu²⁺ → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺</em>
