What are the prompt neutrons that occur during nuclear fission?

Chemistry
1 answer:
zysi [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Prompt Neutrons

Explanation:

Principle. Using uranium-235 as an example, this nucleus absorbs thermal neutrons, and the immediate mass products of a fission event are two large fission fragments, which are remnants of the formed uranium-236 nucleus. These fragments emit two or three free neutrons (2.5 on average), called prompt neutrons.

Three beakers contain clear, colorless liquids. One beaker contains pure water, another contains salt water, and another contain
gladu [14]
Pure water may be identified by its density: it will have the lowwest density of the three solutions, given that the solutes (salt and sugar) increase the density (this is the easiests and quickest way).

You can also measure the freezing points or boling points to identify the pure water because the solutes depress the freezing points and increase the boling points.

To differentiate sugar water and salt water, you can probe which one conducts electricity, because salt water is a conductor (given that it ionizes into Na+ and Cl-) but sugar water is not a conductor.

Steam initially at 0.3 MPa, 2500 C is cooled at constant volume. (a) At what temperature will steam become saturated vapour? [12
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

a. 123.9°C

b.

c.

Explanation:

Hello, I'm attaching a picture with the numerical development of this exercise.

a. Since the steam is overheated vapour, the specific volume is gotten from the corresponding table. Then, as it became a saturated vapour, we look for the interval in which the same volume of state 1 is, then we interpolate and get the temperature.

b. Now, at 80°C, since it is about a rigid tank (constant volume for every thermodynamic process), the specific volume of the mixture is 0.79645 m^3/kg as well, so the specific volume for the liquid and the vapour are taken into account to get the quality of 0.234.

c. Now,since this is an isocoric process, the heat transfer per kg of steam is computed as the difference in the internal energy, considering the initial condition (showed in a. part) and the final one computed here.

** The thermodynamic data were obtained from Cengel's thermodynamics book 7th edition.

Best regards.

<span>Two scientists wrote a paper detailing their research and conclusions and submitted it to a scientific journal. Several months later, they received the paper back from the publisher with many comments attached from several fellow scientists. It is either that they revise their study or replicate the study. Most scientists would revisit their work and the findings they had from their research. Most probable if they were successful and the comments of the publisher and the co-scientists were positive they could replicate the study to validate its accountability.<span>

If 1.27 moles of bromine gas (Br2) react with excess phosphorus (P), how many moles of phosphorus tribromide (PBr3) will be prod
frez [133]

Answer:

0.85 mole of PBr3.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

3Br2 + 2P —> 2PBr3

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of Br2 reacted to produce 2 moles of PBr3.

Therefore, 1.27 moles of Br2 will react to produce = (1.27 x 2)/ 3 = 0.85 mole of PBr3.

Therefore, 0.85 mole of PBr3 is produced by the reaction.
