Which best describes nuclear fission

Chemistry

<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>

How many of the following are found in 15.0 kmol of xylene (C8H10)? (a) kg C8H10; (b) mol C8H10; (c) lb-mole C8H10; (d) mol (g-a
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

a) 1592.4 kg C8H10

b) 15*10³ mol C8H10

c) 33.1 lb-mole

d) 1.2 *10^5 mol C

e)  1.5 * 10^5 mol H

f)  1.44 * 10^6 grams C

g) 1.52 * 10^5 grams H

h) 9.03*10^27 molecules C8H10

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles C8H10 = 15.0 kmol =15000 moles

Molar mass of C8H10 = 106.16 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate mass C8H10

Mass C8H10 = moles C8H10 * molar mass C8H10

Mass C8H10 = 15000 * 106.16 g/mol

Mass C8H10 = 1592400 grams = 1592.4 kg

Step 3: Calculate moles C8H10

15.0 kmol = 15*10³ mol C8H10

Step 4: Calculate lb-mol

15.0 kmol = 33.1 lb-mole

Step 5: Calculate moles of C

For 1 mol C8H10 we have 8 moles of C

For 15*10³ mol C8H10 we have 8* 15*10³  =1.2 *10^5 mol C

Step 6: Calculate moles H

For 1 mol C8H10 we have 10 moles of H

For 15*10³ mol C8H10 we have 10* 15*10³  = 1.5 * 10^5 mol H

Step 7: Calculate mass of C

Mass C = moles C * molar mass C

Mass C = 1.2 *10^5 mol C * 12 g/mol

Mass C = 1.44 * 10^6 grams

Step 8: Calculate mass of H

Mass H = moles H * molar mass H

Mass H = 1.5 *10^5 mol H * 1.01 g/mol

Mass C = 1.52 * 10^5 grams

Step 9: Calculate molecules of C8H10

Number of molecules = number of moles * number of Avogadro

Number of molecules =  15*10³ mol C8H10 * 6.022*10^23

Number of molecules = 9.03*10^27 molecules

Which elements above will form cations? List them below.
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Halogens always form anions, alkali metals and alkaline earth metals always form cations. Most other metals form cations (e.g. iron, silver, nickel), whilst most other nonmetals typically form anions (e.g. oxygen, carbon, sulfur).

Explanation:

Examples: Sodium (Na+), Iron (Fe2+), Ammonium (NH4

Electrolysis of molten lead bromide is carried out.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Read Below

Explanation:

Electrolysis is not possible with solid lead (II) bromide. This is because the ions are held in a three-dimensional lattice, unable to move freely to the electrodes. Melting enables the ions to become mobile and to travel to the respective electrodes.

The bulb won't glow when the electrodes are embedded in solid lead bromide.  The bulb will glow when the material surrounding the electrodes is molten lead bromide. When an ionic compound is in the molten (liquid) form the positive and negative ions are free to move around.

Hopes this Helps :D
