Answer:

Waste.

Explanation:

"A major environmental concern related to nuclear power is the creation of radioactive wastes such as uranium mill tailings, spent (used) reactor fuel, and other radioactive wastes. These materials can remain radioactive and dangerous to human health for thousands of years. Radioactive wastes are subject to special regulations that govern their handling, transportation, storage, and disposal to protect human health and the environment. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulates the operation of nuclear power plants."

In the following reaction, eight moles of sodium hydroxide is broken down into four moles of sodium oxide and four moles of wate

maxonik [38]

Answer:

21.344%

Explanation:

For the given chemical reaction, 8 moles of the reactant should produce 4 moles of $Na_{2}O$ . However, 195 g of $Na_{2}O$ was produced instead. The molar mass of $Na_{2}O$ is 61.9789 g/mol.

Thus, the moles of $Na_{2}O$ produced = 195/61.9789 = 3.1462 moles

The percent error = [(Actual -Experiment)/Actual]*100%

The percent error = [(4.00 - 3.1462)/4.00]*100% = (0.85376/4.00)*100% = 21.344%
