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.

If you run the reaction to make water: 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, starting with 3.0 moles of hydrogen gas and 2.0 moles of oxygen gas, wha
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

54 g is the theoretical yield

Explanation:

This is the reaction:

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O

So 2 moles of hydrogen react with 1 mol of oxygen, to produce 2 mol of water.

If I have 3 moles of H₂ and 2 moles of O₂, the my limiting reactant is the hydrogen.

1 mol of O₂ react with 2 moles of H₂

S 2 mol of O₂ would react with 4 moles (I only have 3 moles)

Then, ratio is 2:2 the same as 1:1

As 2 mol of H₂ produce 2 moles of water, 3 moles of H₂ will produce 3 moles of H₂O.

This is the theoretical yield in moles. Let's convert them to mass (mol . molar mass)

3 mol . 18g/m = 54 g

Choose the best tool for each scenario.
Mama L [17]

Answer:

a) Graph

b) Weight balance or gas syringe  or upside-down measuring cylinder

Explanation:

a) Identifying a trend in temperature change over time - The best tool for this scenario is to represents the temperature daily, weekly, monthly or annually on graph to interpret the fluctuation in temperature owing to local seasonal changes and weather conditions

b) Measuring the mass of a product of a chemical reaction - If the product is solid or liquid then the balance is used to measure the mass. If the product is a gas, then  gas syringe  or upside-down measuring cylinder is used.

Question 12 of 25
NISA [10]

Answer:

B. Equal amounts of all gases have the same volume at the same

conditions

Explanation:

Amedo Avogadro found the relationship between volume of a gas and the number of molecules contained in the volume.

The law states that "equal volumes of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contains equal number of molecules or moles".

The law describes the behavior of gases when involve in chemical reactions. It enables one to change over at will in any statement about gases from volumes to molecules and vice versa.

So, the right option is B which implies that equal amounts of all gases have the same volume at the same conditions.
