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.

The carbon cycle is closely linked to which process?

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Carbon cycle involves the exchange of components between the hydrosphere, biosphere and atmosphere. During carbon cycle, materials such as gases, minerals which are necessary for life are interchange. For example, animals pass out faeces on the soil which is rich in urea. Urea decomposes to provide nitrogen into the soil through bioactive bacterials. The nitrogen is used up by plants to grow. During photosynthesis, plants uses carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and release oxygen for animals to use. It's like a purification system where one waste product from one organism is used by the other to survive.

Equation of photosynthesis

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.

Electrons are found in energy levels around the nucleus of an atom. Energy levels can also be called ""shells."" The energy leve

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The first electronic shell or energy level, having n= 1, called the K shell, is the closest to the nucleus.

Explanation:

In an atom, the sub atomic particles called electrons, revolve around the nucleus of the given atom at different energy levels, called shells.

The energy levels or the electronic shells are denoted by the principal quantum number (n) and has the following values n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7; from the innermost shell to the outermost.

The electron shells are also labelled by the alphabets, K, L, M, N, O, P, and Q, from the innermost shell to the outermost.

Thus the first electronic shell having n= 1, called K shell, is the lowest energy level and is present closest to the nucleus.

Whereas, the last electronic shell having n =7, called Q shell, is the highest energy level and is farthest from the nucleus.
