strong attraction between liquid particles

Explanation:

When without any change in temperature heat required for conversion of unit mass of a liquid into its vapor state is known as latent heat of vaporization.

When we say a molecule has large heat of vaporization then it means that the liquid or substance has strong intermolecular forces of attraction between its particles and to overcome those forces high heat needs to be provided.

Whereas low heat of vaporization means the intermolecular forces between particles of a liquid or substance can be overcome by slight or low heating of the substance.

Thus, we can conclude that when silicon has large latent heat of vaporization of 12800 J/g then this indicates that particles of silicon are held by strong intermolecular forces. Therefore, high heat is required to change silicon from liquid to vapor state.

Compare and contrast an electric generator and a battery??
anygoal [31]
Both generators and batteries both convert a form of energy into electrical energy. In a battery, a chemical reaction takes place which converts chemical energy into electrical energy. In a generator however, many times mechanical energy is being converted into electrical energy. A process called electromagnetic induction can take place in some generator which is where an electromagnet is used to help conduct electricity. hope this helped!!!

In a nuclear fission reaction, a freely moving neutron is introduced to a nuclear fuel, such
insens350 [35]

In a nuclear fission reaction, a freely moving neutron is introduced to a nuclear fuel, then a neutron is absorbed by an atom's nucleus.

<h3>What is nuclear fission?</h3>

Nuclear fission is a process in which an unstable nuclei will convert into stable nuclei after releasing the energy in the form of particles.

When we introduce a freely moving neutron to the nuclear fuel of uranium-235 nuclei then this introduced neutron was absorbed by the nuclei and makes the nuclei more unstable. Then this unstable nuclei will convert into two nuclei in the addition of three neutrons.

Hence, a neutron is absorbed by an atom's nucleus.
