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!~

For the reaction below, complete the rate expression that relates the change in concentration with respect to time to the rate o
Ann [662]

Answer: Rate in terms of disappearance of NO = -\frac{1d[NO]}{2dt}

Rate in terms of disappearance of Cl_2= -\frac{1d[Cl_2]}{1dt}

Rate in terms of appearance of NOCl = \frac{1d[NOCl]}{2dt}

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

2NO+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NOCl

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

Rate in terms of disappearance of  = -\frac{1d[NO]}{2dt}

Rate in terms of disappearance of = -\frac{1d[Cl_2]}{1dt}

Rate in terms of appearance of NOCl = +\frac{1d[NOCl]}{2dt}

Which chemical equation demonstrates the law of conservation of mass!
zlopas [31]

Answer:

F. 2NO + 02 —> 2NO

H. 4NH3 + 502 —> 4NO + 6H20

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but can be convert from one form to another.

2NO + 02 —> 2NO

From the above, the total number of N on the left balance the total number on the right i.e 2 atoms of N on both side of the equation.

The total number of O on the left balance the total number on the right i.e 2 atoms of O on both side of the equation. This is certified by the law of conservation of mass.

4NH3 + 502 —> 4NO + 6H20

From the above, the total number of N on the left balance the total number on the right i.e 4 atoms of N on both side of the equation.

The total number of O on the left balance the total number on the right i.e 10 atoms of O on both side of the equation.

The total number of H on the left balance the total number on the right i.e 12 atoms of O on both side of the equation.

This is certified by the law of conservation of mass.

The rest equation did not conform to the law of conservation of mass as the atoms on the left side did not balance those on the right side

Part A: You are given a beaker containing a solution of an enzyme that hydrolyzes adenosine triphosphate (ATP) while it generate
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

1) magnesium chloride

2) b) The copper is getting oxidized from Cu+ to Cu2+ and turns blue.

Explanation:

The work published by David N. Frick, Sukalyani Banik, and Ryan S. Rypma in J Mol Biol. 2007 Jan 26; 365(4): 1017–1032 clearly shows that divalent metal ions of group 2 such as Mg^2+ play an important role in ATP hydrolysis. Addition of EDTA decreased the rate of hydrolysis of ATP (due to sequestration of the divalent ion of group 2) indicating an active participation of divalent ions in the process.

2) The copper I ion is colourless because it is a d^10 specie. However, when it is oxidized to Cu^2+, a blue colour appears in the solution.

From the following balanced equation,
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

9.72 grams.

Explanation:

From the equation, 4 moles of NH₃ produce 6 moles of  water.

Therefore the reaction to product ratio of  NH₃ to H₂O is 4:6

and 2:3 into its simplest form.

The number of moles of NH₃ in 6.12 g is:

Number of moles=mass/ RMM

=6.12 g/17 G/mol

=0.36 moles.

Therefore the number of moles of H₂O produced is calculated as follows.

(0.36 Moles×3)2 = 0.54 moles

Mass= Number of moles × RMM

=0.54 moles×18g/mol

=9.72 grams.
