The answer is Uranium atoms

AlekseyPX3 years ago

They use Uranium fuel, consisting of solid ceramic pellets, to produce electricity through a process called fission. Nuclear power plants obtain the heat needed to produce steam through a physical process. This process, called fission, entails the splitting of atoms of uranium in a nuclear reactor.

Hope this helps! :)

What is the net ionic equation of the reaction of MgSO4 with Pb(NO3)2? Express you answer as a chemical equation including phase
Nady [450]

Answer : The net ionic equation will be,

Pb^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow PbSO_4(s)

Explanation :

In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

Spectator ions : The same number of ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions.

The given balanced ionic equation will be,

MgSO_4(aq)+Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Mg(NO_3)_2(aq)+PbSO_4(s)

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

Mg^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)+Pb^{2+}(aq)+2NO^{3-}(aq)\rightarrow PbSO_4(s)+Mg^{2+}(aq)+2NO^{3-}(aq)

In this equation, Mg^{2+}\text{ and }NO_3^- are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

Pb^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow PbSO_4(s)

How many oxygen atoms are in 68.8mg Na₂S₂O₃ 5H₂O
guajiro [1.7K]
It should be 8 O atoms. 3O atoms in Na2S2O3 and 5O atom in 5H2O.  The reason there are 5 O atoms are because the 5 in front of H2O means you multiply each atom in the compound by that number (like the distributive property). The H2 molecule becomes 10 Hydrogen atoms (5*2) and the Oxygen becomes 5 Oxygen atoms (5*1). Then you add the 5O atoms to the 3O atoms which equals 8

Why is sugar soluble in water while oil cannot form a solution?​
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

the water and alcohol interact, which means the water doesn't even dissolve the sugar or color as well as it normally would. Oil molecules are not polar so they cannot dissolve either the coloring or the sugar.

Determine whether each of the examples represents a colligative property or a non-colligative property. boiling point elevation
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

boiling point elevation - colligative property

color - non-colligative property

freezing point depression - colligative property

vapor pressure lowering - colligative property

density - non-colligative property

Explanation:

A colligative property is a property that depends on the number of particles present in the system.

Freezing point depression, boiling point elevation and vapour pressure lowering are all colligative properties of solutions.

Colour and density do not depend on the number of particles present hence they are not colligative properties.
