The energy discharged at the time of nuclear fusion or fission, mainly when used to produce electricity is known as nuclear energy. Although nuclear energy has become one of the most potent sources of energy in the present time, it also brings some harmful effects along with it, mainly by affecting the surrounding environment like the water bodies present nearby.

Some of the potential problems for the nearby water sources when using nuclear energy are:

1. It contaminates water with radioactive waste.

2. It creates hazardous conditions for the species living in the water.

3. It adds very hot water to cool water environments.

4. It utilizes a resource, which becomes scarce at the time of drought.

Which (3 of the 4) quantities must be conserved in all chemical reactions?

Helen [10]

Mass, charge, and energy are conserved, no matter how much volume of
space they may be spread through either before or after the reaction.

Concerning density ...
Think about the fascinating classroom demonstration where the teacher
drops a tiny pellet of sodium into a glass of water. The sodium gets very
excited, and it skates and skitters around on the surface of the water,
faster and faster, and eventually it explodes. All the girls in the class
scream, while the guys are just sitting there and staring at the cloud
of steam that's rising from the glass of water. The whole point here
is that the density of the steam is much different from the density of
either the water or the sodium that reacted to create it. The density
is not conserved.

For the process 2SO2(g) + O2(g) --> 2SO3(g),

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

–187.9 J/K

Explanation:

The equation that relates the three quantities is:

$\Delta G = \Delta H - T \Delta S$

where

$\Delta G$ is the Gibbs free energy

$\Delta H$ is the change in enthalpy of the reaction

T is the absolute temperature

$\Delta S$ is the change in entropy

In this reaction we have:

ΔS = –187.9 J/K

ΔH = –198.4 kJ = -198,400 J

T = 297.0 K

So the Gibbs free energy is

$\Delta G=-198,400-(297.0)(-187.9)=254.2 kJ$

However, here we are asked to say what is the entropy of the reaction, which is therefore

ΔS = –187.9 J/K

If you are given an ideal gas with pressure (P) = 259,392.00 Pa and temperature (T) = 2.00 oC of 1 mole Argon gas in a volume of

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

R = 0.064 dm³ atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

Explanation:

Answer:

Explanation:

Data Given:

volume of gas V = 8.8 dm³

no. of mole of gas (n) = 1 mole

Pressure P = 259,392.00 Pa

Convert Pascal (Pa) to atm (atmospheric pressure)

101,325 Pascals = 1 atm

So,

259,392.00 Pa = 2 atm

Then Pressure (P) = 2 atm

Temperature T = 2.00 °C

change the temperature from °C to K

As to convert °C to K the below formula used

0°C + 273.15 = 273.15K

So, for 2 °C

2°C + 273.15 = 275.15 K

So,

Temperature T = 275.15 K

ideal gas constant = ?

formula used for Ideal gases

PV = nRT

as we have to find R of the gas:

we will rearrange the ideal gas equation as below:

R = PV / nT ........................................... (1)

Put value in equation (1)

R = 2atm x 8.8 dm³ / 1 mole x 275.15 K

R = 17.6 atm. dm³ / 275.15 mol. K

R = 0.064 dm³ atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

So the value of R is 0.064 dm³ atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

and the unit of R (ideal gas constant) is dm³ atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹
