Answer : The correct answer is A. Nuclear reactors using Pu-239

B. burning coal

The sources which are not renewable are known as "non- renewable sources of energy .

Non - renewable sources are those which get expired after rapid use and can never be reproduced . These sources replenishes in very long time . Examples : Coal , petrol or fuels etc .

1) Nuclear reactors using Pu-239 : Nuclear reactors uses radioactive elements like uranium , plutonium etc , which are present in limit . after frequent use of these elements , they will vanish off , Hence we can say nuclear reactors are Non renewable source of energy .

2) Burning coal : Coal is used as one of the major source of fuel . On rapid utilization of coal they will finished from earth . It takes thousand of year for formation of coal . Hence , it is a Non -renewable source .

3) Photo-voltaic cell: These are cells which used solar energy . Solar energy is obtained from sun . Hence solar energy is renewable source of energy so is the photo voltaic cell .

4) Geothermal energy : Geothermal energy is source of energy that is extracted from earth's thermal energy . Since thermal energy of earth is present in very large amount and can be reproduced , hence it renewable source of energy .

5)Wind energy : Wind energy is source of energy that is obtained from wind. And wind is renewable source so the wine energy too .

Consequently , we can say only two of them " Nuclear reactors and burning of coal " are Non renewable force of energy .

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

ΔS° = - 47.2 J/mol.K

Explanation:

  • P4O10 + 6H2O → 4H3PO4

ΔS°= 4(S°mH3PO4) - 6(S°mH2O) - S°mP4O10

∴ S°mH2O(l) = 69.9 J/mol.K

∴ S°mP4O10 = 231 J/mol.K

∴ S°mH3PO4 = 150.8 J/mol.K

⇒ ΔS° = 4*(150.8) - 6*(69.9) - 231

⇒ ΔS° = - 47.2 J/mol.K

An unsaturated solution is formed when 80 grams of a salt is dissolved in 100 grams of water at 40. This salt could be ?
LekaFEV [45]
A simple way to go about this is that we look at the solubility curve, on the x axis we first look at the temperature and then the corresponding value of solute/100g H2O on the y axis, from the 4 curves above only NaNO3 has a curve that can accommodate  80g of salt at 40 without being Saturated since at 40 degrees it can accommodate 105g of salt to become completely Saturated.

Why doesn’t the KHP concentration have to be exactly 0.100M? Explain using complete sentences.
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The answer is in the explanation.

Explanation:

The KHP is an acid used as standard in titrations to find concentration of bases as NaOH.

The reaction that explain this use is:

KHP + NaOH → KNaP + H2O

<em>where 1 mole of KHP reacts per mole of NaOH</em>

That means, at equivalence point of a titration in which titrant is NaOH, the moles of KHP = Moles of NaOH added

With the moles of KHP = Moles of NaOH and the volume used by titrant we can find the molar concentration of NaOH.

The moles of KHP are obtained from the volume and the concentration as follows:

Volume(L)*Concentration (Molarity,M) = moles of KHP

If the concentration is more or less than 0.100M, the moles will be higher or lower. For that reason, we need to know the concentration of KHP but is not necessary to be 0.100M.
