Answer: disposal of radioactive waste

Explanation:

The nuclear wastes are those wastes which are generated in the nuclear power plants during nuclear reactions. These wastes are radioactive and they have the potential to cause deadly mutations in living beings and if they come in contact with the external environment from reactor they can cause explosions. Hence, their disposal is a greatest problem.

Which of the following item(s) explain the differences between the Ka values. Choose one or more: A. The oxidation state for oxy
Allisa [31]

Answer:

<em>C. The electron-withdrawing fluorine atoms pull electron density from the oxygen in trifluoroacetate. The negative charge is more stabilized in trifluoroacetate by this effect.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

<em>The structures of trifluoroacetate and acetic acid are both shown in the image attached.</em>

<em>The trifluoroacetate anion (CF3CO2-), just like the acetate anion has in the middle, two oxygen atoms.</em>

<em>However, in the trifluoroacetate anion, there are also three electronegative fluorine atoms attached to the nearby carbon atom attached to the carbonyl, and these pull some electron density through the sigma bonding network away from the oxygen atoms, thereby spreading out the negative charge further. This effect, called the "inductive effect" stabilizes the anion formed,the trifouoroacetate anion is thus more stabilized than the acetate anion.</em>

<em>Hence, trifluoroacetic acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid, having a pKa of -0.18.</em>

How many of each subatomic particle type does each of the following atoms contain: a. 90_Ag b. barium-132
Kryger [21]

<u>Answer:</u> Silver has 47 electrons, 47 protons and 43 neutrons. Barium has 56 electrons, 56 protons and 76 neutrons.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or electrons that are present in a neutral atom.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

  • <u>For Silver:</u>

Atomic number = 47

Mass number = 90

Atomic number = Number of protons = Number of electrons = 47

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number = 90 - 47 = 43

Hence, silver has 47 electrons, 47 protons and 43 neutrons.

  • <u>For Barium:</u>

Atomic number = 56

Mass number = 132

Atomic number = Number of protons = Number of electrons = 56

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number = 132 - 56 = 76

Hence, barium has 56 electrons, 56 protons and 76 neutrons.
