Pick the glass up, place in a container to be thrown out later, and replace the glass. (Or are you talking about if someone steps on broken glass?)
Out of the following given choices;
A) when there are too many neutrons
B) when the neutrons are slowed down
C) when there is a chain reaction
D) when there is critical mass
The answer is A. A fission nuclear reactor is controlled by regulating the number of neurotoxins produced in the chain reaction. Too many neutrons cause an accelerated chain reaction that causes enormous heat to be generated in a short amount of time which could cause an explosion. Control rods , made of “neutron poisons”, e.g. cadmium, are put in the reactors to control the number of neutrons at any one time
The protons of methylene group between the two carbonyl groups in ethylacetoacetate are acidic in nature. When compounds containing such acidic protons are treated with bases the loose proton and form enolates.
In this particular example when ethylacetoacetate is reacted with methyl magnesium bromide, the methyl group abstracts the acidic proton and converts into methane gas. The enolate when hydrolyzed is again converted into ethylacetoacetate as shown below,
The reaction equation:
2H₂O + 2Na₂O₂ → 4NaOH + O₂
Moles of sodium peroxide = 10 / 78 = 0.128
Moles of oxygen released = 0.128 / 2 = 0.064 mol
Mass of oxygen = 0.064 x 32
Mass of oxygen = 2.05 grams
