What would happen to a diver who does no exhale while surfacing from a 30 m dive?

1 answer:

6 0

Their lungs would try to expand to about 4 timed the normal volume which would force air into the various body tissues. this can cause a lung expansion injury and it could case air embolism. Air embolism is when air bubbles get trapped in blood vessels. This can lead to a blockage which will could be fatal.

Which describes the products created from fission reactions? Question 3 options:

Ipatiy [6.2K]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nuclear fission reactions are a type of nuclear reactions in which larger nuclei breaks apart into two or more smaller fragment releasing alpha, gamma of beta particles.

There are 3 types of particles that can be released during this process:

1. Alpha particles: These particles are released when a nuclei undergoes alpha-decay process.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}\textrm{Y}+_2^4\alpha$

2. Beta particles: These particles are released when a nuclei undergoes beta-minus decay process.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^{A}\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta$

3. Gamma radiations: these radiations are released when an unstable nuclei gives off excess energy by a process of spontaneous electromagnetic process.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}^*\rightarrow _Z^A\textrm{X}+_0^0\gamma$

Hence, any of these particles can be released during the process of fission reaction with smaller atoms.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

4. Consider the following half-reactions: MnO4–(aq) + 8H+(aq) + 5e– → Mn+2(aq) + 4H2O(l) NO3–(aq) + 4H+(aq) + 3e– → NO(g) + 2H2O

jeyben [28]

Explanation:

The chemical reaction given in the question is as follows -

MnO₄⁻ (aq) + 8H⁺ (aq) + 5e⁻ → Mn²⁺ (aq) + 4H₂O (l)

NO₃⁻ (aq) + 4H⁺ (aq) + 3e⁻ → NO (g) + 2H₂O (l)

As we know , the value for reduction potential are -

Mn²⁺ = + 1.51 V

NO₃⁻ = +0.96 V

From , the data given above , the value of the reduction potential of NO₃⁻ is less than the reduction potential of Mn²⁺ .

Hence ,

NO₃⁻ can not oxidize Mn²⁺ .

Aspirin that has been stored for a long time may give a vinegar like odour and give a purple colour with FeCl3. What reaction wo

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The IUPAC name of aspirin is 2-Acetoxybenzoic acid. It is composed of an acetoxy moiety and a benzoic acid moiety.

The compound can be hydrolysed under prolonged storage conditions to yield acetic acid which causes the vinegar like odour.

Also, one of the products of this hydrolysis bears a phenol group which reacts with FeCl3 to give a purple color.
