During a nuclear reaction, fuel rods generate a tremendous amount of heat. ... Problems cooling these pools have officials worried that the spent rods could ... appear to be related to one or more of the spent fuel storage pools at the plant. ... These fission byproducts are also very radioactive.

does that kind of help a little?

Answer:

They are scheduled for deep underground burial

Explanation:

Honestly none of these answers are correct in a sense.

They are no longer radioactive - This one is absolutely false since spent fuel rods remain dangerously radioactive for about for about 10,000 years

They contain only one type of isotope of the fuel (uranium) - There will be some 235 isotopes as well as some 238. Other isotopes might be present as well but only in very small amounts.

They usually remain radioactive for less than 100 years - As mentioned above, spent fuel rods remain dangerously radioactive for about 10,000 years.

They are scheduled for deep underground burial - This answer is probably the best as it it somewhat true. In the 1980's there was a plan launched by the federal government to bury spent fuel below Yucca Mountain in Nevada. However, this project was later called off to think of a better means of containment.

However...

Scandinavia and Finland have already approved an approach known as "deep storage" and have already begun to work on their own sites.

~Hope this helps!~

4. a compound called pyrene has the empirical formula c8h5. when 4.04 g of pyrene is dissolved in 10.00 g of benzene, the boilin
e-lub [12.9K]

The molecular mass of pyrene is 204.4 g/mol.

From;

ΔT = Kb m i

Where;

  • ΔT = boiling point elevation
  • Kb = boiling point constant
  • m = molality
  • i = Van't Hoff factor

Since the compound is molecular; i = 1

The number of moles of pyrene = 4.04 g/MM

Where; MM = molar mass of pyrene

molality = number of moles of pyrene/mass of solvent in Kg

The mass of solvent = 10 g or 0.01 Kg

molality =  4.04 g/MM/0.01

ΔT = Boiling point of solution - Boiling point of pure solvent

ΔT = 85.1°C - 80.1°C

ΔT = 5°C

5 = 2.53 × 4.04 g/MM/0.01 × 1

5 = 10.22 × 1/0.01 MM

0.05MM = 10.22

MM= 10.22/0.05

MM= 204.4 g/mol
