What are the three isotopes of hydrogen and what is the significance of these isotopes?

Chemistry
2 answers:

Answer:

21H deuterium (D), 31H is tritium (T), 11H is hydrogen

Explanation:

11H: it has the greatest abundance, it has only one proton (it does not have neutrons).

 21H (D): it has a proton and a neutron in its nucleus.

 31H (T): it has a proton and two neutrons in its nucleus.

Remember that isotopes have the same atomic number, but a different mass number (elements in the number of neutrons differed).

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

They are Hydrogen 1 , Hydrogen 2 (also called deuterium) and Hydrogen 3 (tritium)

Hydrogen has no neutrons in the nucleus while deuterium has 1 and tritium has 2.

Deuterium has been used in the nuclear industry ( as heavy water , deuterium oxide) and  as a compound lithium deuteride in the H bomb. Tritium  is also used as a fuel in nuclear fusion reactions,  and as a radioactive tracer.

Tracie measured 87.47 mg of cholesterol in 0.03 mL of blood. What is the density of this mixture in g/mL?
Lelu [443]

We can use a simple equation to solve this problem.


d = m/v


Where d is the density, m is the mass and v is the volume.


d = ?

m = 87.47 mg = 87.47 x 10⁻³ g

v = 0.03 mL


By applying the equation,

  d = 87.47 x 10⁻³ g / 0.03 mL

  d = 2.92 g/mL



Hence, the density of the mixture is 2.92 g/mL.

Explain two advantages and disadvantages of using energy created by nuclear fission and nuclear fusion.
alisha [4.7K]
A. NUCLEAR FUSION  is the combination of two atomic nuclei in order to create an atom that in turn creates energy.

A.1 DISADVANTAGES

1. Expensive Construction Costs-
To be able to put up such powerhouse, it needs ostentatious financial support to create a facility and gather experts and scientists.

2. Energy Input vs Energy Output- 
To be able to fuse the two nuclei together, there is a great demand for high levels of heat. Thus to be able to produce large amount of energy, it also needs a large amount of thermal energy which is not reasonable enough.

A.2 ADVANTAGES

1. Barely Any Waste- 
the only by product of nuclear fusion is helium and it is non toxic. This does not cause any harm to the environment and to people.

2. Unlimited Fuel- 
All of the components needed to produce energy can be made. Deuterium, which is the main ingredient needed to supply a truly unlimited and sustainable energy supply, can be distilled from the sea water.


B. NUCLEAR FISSION- refers to the process of splitting of the nucleus of an atom into several smaller particles to produce free neutrons and lighter elements.

B.1 DISADVANTAGES

1. It can be dangerous for employees- 
Radiation which is one of the byproducts of nuclear fission can be harmful to the personnel working within its premises.

2. It has high initial expenses- 
Nuclear power plants needs a specialized equipment for it to become functional. 

B.2 ADVANTAGES


1. It helps minimize environmental pollution- 
Nuclear power plants can produce large amounts of energy while consuming relatively minimal amount of fossil fuel. To explain further, consumption and usage of fossil fuel poses adverse effect in the environment because it can emit carbon dioxide and other harmful chemicals.

2. It helps reduce global warming- If the world would opt for nuclear fission, then there would be less greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere. This in turn would mitigate global warming.

A flask is filled with 50.0 ml of 0.15 M HCl acid. Exactly 0.054 grams of CaCo3 are placed in the acid,
ira [324]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

2HCl(aq) + CaCO3(aq) ------->CaCl2(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)

Number of moles of acid present = 50/1000 * 0.15 = 0.0075 moles

Number of moles of calcium carbonate = 0.054g/100 g/mol = 0.00054 moles

2 moles of HCl reacts with 1 mole of calcium carbonate

x moles of HCl reacts with 0.00054 moles of calcium carbonate

x = 2 *  0.00054/1

x = 0.00108 moles of HCl

Amount of acid left = 0.0075 moles - 0.0075 moles = 0.00642 moles

Reaction of HCl and NaOH

HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) ------> NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

Since the reaction is in the mole ratio of 1:1

0.00642 moles of HCl is neutralized by 0.00642 moles of NaOH

PLEASE HELP!! What is the concentration [H3O+] of a solution with a pH of 13.2? Is the solution acidic, basic, or neutral?
Ilya [14]

The  concentration of [H3O+] will be 6.3 x 10^{-14} M

<h3>pH</h3>

Mathematically, pH = -log [H+] or -log [H3O+]

With a pH of 13.2:

      -log [H3O+] = 13.2

                     log [H3O+] = -13.2

                         [H3O+] = 6.3 x 10^{-14} M
