Answer:It is a nuclear process, where energy is produced by smashing together light atoms. It is the opposite reaction of fission, where heavy isotopes are split apart.
Explanation Fusion is the process by which the sun and other stars generate light and heat.
It’s most easily achieved on Earth by combining two isotopes of hydrogen: deuterium and tritium. Hydrogen is the lightest of all the elements, being made up of a single proton and a electron. Deuterium has an extra neutron in its nucleus; it can replace one of the hydrogen atoms in H20 to make what is called “heavy water.”
Answer:
- <em>To balance a chemical equation it may be necessary to adjust the </em><u>coefficients.</u>
Explanation:
The <em>coefficients</em> of a <em>chemical equation</em> are the numbers that you put in front of each reactant and product. They are used to balance the equation and comply with the law of mass conservation.
By adjusting the coefficients you obtain the relative amounts (moles) of each product and reactant, i.e. the mole ratios.
Here an example.
The first information is what is called a word equation. E.g. nitrogen and hydrogen react to form ammonia:
- Word equation: hydrogen + nitrogen → ammonia
- Skeleton equation: H₂ + N₂ → NH₃
This equation shows the chemical formulae but it is not balanced. The law of mass conservation is not observed.
So, in order to comply with the law of mass conservation you adjust the coefficients as follow.
- Balanced chemical equation: 3H₂ + N₂ → 2NH₃
As you see, it was necessary to modify the coefficients. Now the law of conservation of mass is observed and you get the mole ratios:
- 3 mol H₂ : 1 mol N₂ : 2 mol NH₃
Chemical energy is converted to thermal energy.
DE = dH - PdV
<span>2 H2O(g) → 2 H2(g) + O2(g) </span>
<span>You can see that there are 2 moles of gas in the reactants and 3 moles of gas in the products. </span>
<span>1 moles of ideal gas occupies the same volume as 1 mole of any other ideal gas under the same conditions of temp and pressure. </span>
<span>Since it is done under constant temp and pressure that means the volume change will be equal to the volume of 1 mole of gas </span>
<span>2 moles reacts to form 3 moles </span>
<span>The gas equation is </span>
<span>PV = nRT </span>
<span>P = pressure </span>
<span>V = volume (unknown) </span>
<span>n = moles (1) </span>
<span>R = gas constant = 8.314 J K^-1 mol^-1 </span>
<span>- the gas constant is different for different units of temp and pressure (see wikki link) in this case temp and pressure are constant, and we want to put the result in an equation that has Joules in it, so we select 8.314 JK^-1mol^-1) </span>
<span>T = temp in Kelvin (kelvin = deg C + 273.15 </span>
<span>So T = 403.15 K </span>
<span>Now, you can see that PV is on one side of the equation, and we are looking to put PdV in our dE equation. So we can say </span>
<span>dE = dH -dnRT (because PV = nRT) </span>
<span>Also, since the gas constant is in the unit of Joules, we need to convert dH to Joules </span>
<span>dH = 483.6 kJ/mol = 483600 Joules/mol </span>
<span>dE = 483600 J/mol - (1.0 mol x 8.314 J mol^-1K-1 x 403.15 K) </span>
<span>dE = 483600 J/mol - 3351.77 J </span>
<span>dE = 480248.23 J/mol </span>
<span>dE = 480.2 kJ/mol </span>
Answer:
B.) trigonal bipyramidal
Explanation:
A.) is incorrect. In octahedral molecules, the central atom is bonded to six other atoms.
B.) is correct. In trigonal bipyramidal structures, the central atom is bonded to five other atoms.
C.) is incorrect. In tetrahedral molecules, the central atom is bonded to four other atoms.
D.) is incorrect. There is not such thing as a pyramidal molecular shape. This term is most likely referring to the shape, trigonal pyramidal. However, this is still incorrect. In trigonal pyramidal molecules, the central atom is bonded to three other atoms and a lone pair of electrons.
