Which best describes nuclear fission

2 answers:

7 0

<span>Nuclear fission is either a nuclear reaction or radio active decay process in which nucleus (the center) of an atom splits into smaller parts called nuclei. This is an extremely exothermic reaction (i.e a reaction which produces heat) resulting into release of massive amount of energy in the form of heat and sometimes light. The reaction produces much more energy as compared to a similar mass of a conventional fuel, such as Petrol/Kerosene/Petroleum Gas etc. This makes Nuclear fission an extremely dense and at times very destructive source of energy. Some common elements capable of Nuclear fission are Uranium, Plutonium etc. Though in modern days Nuclear Fission are finding application in being a source of energy (such as a Nuclear power plant), but they are also used in destructive format as Nuclear Bombs and it's one of the top most imminent threats to the existence of humanity in future (in the event of a Nuclear war).</span>

3. Crystalline structural unit of barium metal is a body-centered cubic cell. The edge length of the unit cell is 5.02x10-8 cm.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The Avogadro's number is $N_A = 6.02289 *10^{23}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The edge length is $L = 5.02 * 10^{-8} \ cm= \frac{5.02 * 10^{-8} }{100} = 5.02 * 10^{-10}$

The density of the metal is $\rho = 5.30\ g/cm^3 = 5.30 * \frac{g}{cm^3} * \frac{1*10^6}{1*10^3} = 5.30 *10^3kg/m^3$

The molar mass of Ba is $Z = 137.3 \ g/mol = \frac{137.3}{1000} = 0.1373 \ kg / mol$

Generally the volume of a unit cell is

$V = L^3$

substituting value

$V = [5.02 *10^{-10}]^3$

$V = 1.265*10^{-28}\ m^3$

From the question we are told that 68% of the unit cell is occupied by Ba atoms and that the structure is a metal which implies that the crystalline structure will be (BCC),

The volume of barium atom is

$V_a = \frac{V}{2} * 0.68$

substituting value

$V_a = \frac{ 1.265*10^{-28}}{2} * 0.68$

$V_a = 4.301 *10^{-29} \ m^3$

The Molar mass of barium is mathematically represented as

$Z = N_A V_a * \rho$

Where $N_A$ is the Avogadro's number

$N_A = \frac{ Z}{ V_a * \rho}$

substituting value

$N_A = \frac{ 0.1373}{ 4.301*10^{-29} * 5.3*10^{3}}$

$N_A = 6.02289 *10^{23}$

What is the momentum of a 50-kilogram ice skater gliding across the ice at a speed of 5 m/s

chubhunter [2.5K]

Momentum is a term used to quantify the motion of an object has. It is calculated as the the product of the object's mass and the velocity. It is expressed as:
Momentum = m x vMomentum = 50 kg x 5 m/sMomentum = 250 kg m/s
Therefore, the correct answer is the last option.
