Nuclear fusion in the sun involves hydrogen (H) atoms
combining to form helium (He). A student claims that since the atmosphere
contains hydrogen, any fusion reaction on Earth would result in an uncontrolled
chain reaction. What is wrong in the student’s reasoning is that the uncontrolled
chain reactions can only happen during nuclear fission.
On the periodic table it is the number on the bottom of the element.
<span>If you know the amount of neutrons you can add it to the number of protons to find the atomic mass NUMBER, which is a good approximate of the atomic mass. </span>
Answer: The concentration of hydrogen ion in the given solution is
.
Explanation:
pOH of a solution is the negative logarithm of concentration of hydroxide ions.
Hence, if
is
then its pOH value is calculated as follows.
![pOH = -log [OH^{-}]\\= -log (3.5 \times 10^{-5})\\= 4.45](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pOH%20%3D%20-log%20%5BOH%5E%7B-%7D%5D%5C%5C%3D%20-log%20%283.5%20%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-5%7D%29%5C%5C%3D%204.45)
Now, the relation between pH and pOH is as follows.
pH + pOH = 14
pH + 4.45 = 14
pH = 14 - 4.45
= 9.55
And, pH is the negative logarithm of concentration of hydrogen ions. Hence,
is calculated as follows.
![pH = -log [H^{+}]\\9.55 = -log [H^{+}]\\H^{+} = 2.81 \times 10^{-10}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%20%3D%20-log%20%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%5C%5C9.55%20%3D%20-log%20%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%5C%5CH%5E%7B%2B%7D%20%3D%202.81%20%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-10%7D)
Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of hydrogen ion in the given solution is
.
Answer:
<em>The correct option is D) a motile eukaryote</em>
Explanation:
Peroxisomes are structures which are present only in the plant or animal cells. Hence, based on this observation we can easily tell that the organism which is newly discovered is a eukaryote. Both plants and animals are eukaryotes.
Flagella are structures which are thin and hair shaped. Flagella allow movement of a cell, mostly they allow a whip-like movement. Based on this observation we will conclude that the organism discovered is a motile eukaryote.
