<span>Option-C: They react mainly by substitution.

Explanation:
Alkene doesn't give substitution reactions because they are non polar in nature. The double bond in alkene is responsible for Electrophillic Addition reactions as it electron rich and nucleophilic in nature. Reaction of Alkene is given below,</span>

Each incomplete reaction is a neutralization reaction. Match each equation with the salt formed. 1. H2SO4 + 2NH4OH → ? 2. 2NaOH

sergey [27]

1. H₂SO₄ + 2NH₄OH ⟶ (NH₄)₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

2. 2NaOH + H₂CO₃ ⟶ Na₂CO₃ + 2H₂O

3. HNO₃ + KOH ⟶ KNO₃ + H₂O

<em>Explanation</em>:

Acid + base ⟶ salt + water

Take the H from the acid and the OH from the base to get water.

Then, join what’s left to get the salt. Write the symbol for the metal first.

For example, in equation 3, take the H from HNO₃ and the OH from KOH.

Combining the remaining parts (NO₃ and K) to get the salt, KNO₃.

U-235 undergoes many different fission reactions. For one such reaction, when U-235 is struck with a neutron, Ce-144 and Sr-90 a

Lostsunrise [7]

Explanation:

A nuclear fission reaction is defined as the reaction in which a heavy nucleus splits into small nuclei along with release of energy.

The given reaction is $^{235}_{92}U + ^{1}_{0}n \rightarrow ^{144}_{58}Ce + ^{90}_{38}Sr + x^{1}_{0}n + y^{0}_{-1}\beta$

Now, we balance the mass on both reactant and product side as follows.

235 + 1 = $144 + 90 + (x \times 1) + (y \times 0)$

236 = 234 + x

x = 236 -234

= 2

So, now we balance the charge on both reactant and product side as follows.

92 + 0 = $58 + 38 + (x \times 0) + (y \times -1)$

92 = 96 - y

y = 4

Thus, we can conclude that there are 2 neutrons and 4 beta-particles are produced in the given reaction.

Therefore, reaction equation will be as follows.

$^{235}_{92}U + ^{1}_{0}n \rightarrow ^{144}_{58}Ce + ^{90}_{38}Sr + 2^{1}_{0}n + 4^{0}_{-1}\beta$

Explain why diamond has a high melting point

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Each carbon atom is covalently bonded to 4 other carbon atoms in diamond. A large amount of energy is required to split these atoms apart. This is because of the fact that covalent bonds are strong.

Which of the following correctly describes the difference (on average) between an electron in a 2s orbital and an electron in a

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

C: electrons is the 3s orbital are higher than those in the 2s orbital

Explanation:

Looking at the options, the correct one is that the electrons in the 3s orbital will possess more energy than those in the 2s orbital. This is because the the 2s orbitals will be filled with electrons first before the 3s orbital.

Also from basics we know that the energy of an orbital increases as the quantum number increases.

to find the density of stopper I weighted it and found its mass to 4.8g. After that I filled a graduated cylinder with 32.1mL of

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

0.68g/ml

Explanation:

The density of an object is its mass per unit volume. It is calculated using the formula

Density = mass / volume

Mass of stopper weighed = 4.8g

The volume of stopper can be got by subtracting the (volume of water) from the (volume of water+stopper) i.e.

= 39.2ml - 32.1ml

= 7.1ml

Volume of stopper = 7.1ml

Density of stopper= 4.8/7.1

Density= 0.676056

Therefore, the density of the stopper is 0.68g/ml
