Which best describes nuclear fission

Chemistry

Firlakuza [10]3 years ago

<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>

Classify each of these reactions pb(no3)2+nicl2=pbcl2+ni(no3)2
maxonik [38]

The reaction Pb(NO3)2(aq) + NiCl2(aq)---------> PbCl2(s) + Ni(NO3)2(aq) is a precipitation reaction.

A chemical reaction is said to occur when two or more substances are combined to produce new substances. Chemical reactions are classified based on the kind of change taking place in the reaction.

In the reaction;

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + NiCl2(aq)---------> PbCl2(s) + Ni(NO3)2(aq)

We can see that a solid is formed when lead II nitrate reacts with nickel II chloride. This is a precipitation reaction.

Write the balanced equation for each reaction. Phases are optional.
Rudiy27

Answer:

1. CO₃⁻²  +  H₂O  ⇄  HCO₃⁻  +  OH⁻

2. HCO₃⁻ +  H₂O  ⇄  H₂CO₃  +  OH⁻  

3.  H₂CO₃ →  H₂O  + CO₂

Basic solution

Explanation:

Brønsted Lowry theory:

Acid → Release a proton

Base → Accept a proton

1. CO₃⁻²  +  H₂O  ⇄  HCO₃⁻  +  OH⁻

Carbonate takes a proton from the water

2.  HCO₃⁻ +  H₂O  ⇄  H₂CO₃  +  OH⁻  

Bicarbonate takesa proton from the water to produce carbonic acid.

3. H₂CO₃ →  H₂O  + CO₂

Carbonate acid decomposes into CO₂ and H₂O

In the first reaction, when the carbonate takes a proton from the water, water releases OH⁻, so the solution is basic.

Why does salt dissolve in water?
tigry1 [53]
The water dissolves the salt because the water molecules are able to interact with the salt-forming particles, called ions. When the water Interacts with the trainers of the salt ions, the solid salt crystal structure Suffers breakdown, until the trainers of the salt ions are completely surrounded by water molecules. At this time the salt is fully dissolved by water.

hope this helps!
