1 answer:
Nezavi [6.7K]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:  D) helium.

Explanation:

Nuclear fission is a process which involves the conversion of a heavier nuclei into two or more small and stable nuclei along with the release of energy.

_{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_0^1\textrm{n}\rightarrow _{56}^{143}Ba+_{36}^{90}Kr+3_0^1\textrm{n}

Nuclear fusion is a process which involves the conversion of two small nuclei to form a heavy nuclei along with release of energy.

Example: _1^2\textrm{H}+_1^3\textrm{H}\rightarrow _2^4\textrm{He}+_0^1\textrm{n}+\text{energy}

Thus when deuterium and tritium , the two isotopes of hydrogen are fused, a heavier nuclei helium is being formed from two smaller nuclei releasing a neutron.

6.The original Listerine formula contains 26.9% alcohol (v/v). How many liters of Listerine can be prepared from 4.5 L of pure a
Burka [1]

Answer:

Amount of Listerine can be prepared = 16.73 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Listerine formula contains = 26.9% alcohol

Amount of alcohol = 4.5 L

Find:

Amount of Listerine can be prepared

Computation:

Amount of Listerine can be prepared = (Amount of alcohol) / (Listerine formula contains)

Amount of Listerine can be prepared = 4.5 / 26.9%

Amount of Listerine can be prepared = 16.73 (Approx)

Drag electrons back and forth until the molecule of oxygen (O2) is stable. Click Check to confirm your molecule is stable. How m
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

2 pairs (4 electrons)

Explanation:

In a molecule of oxygen there are 2 oxygen atoms. There are 6 electrons in the outer shells of oxygen atoms. When 2 oxygen atoms form a covalent bond they share their electrons. In a diagram this would be represented by the overlap of the two circles representing the outer shells of both oxygen atoms. If each oxygen atom 'puts forward' 2 electrons into the centre, then 4 will be shared overall for each atom, making both atoms have full outer shells of 8 electrons each. 4 electrons make 2 pairs, hence the answer.

How much water must be added to 516 mL of 0.191 M HCl to produce a 0.133 M solution? (Assume that the volumes are additive)
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

225 mL of water must be added.

Explanation:

First we <u>calculate how many HCl moles are there in 516 mL of a 0.191 M solution</u>:

  • 516 mL * 0.191 M = 98.556 mmol HCl

Now we use that number of moles (that remain constant during the <em>dilution process</em>) to <u>calculate the final volume of the 0.133 M solution</u>:

  • 98.556 mmol / 0.133 M = 741 mL

We can <u>calculate the volume of water required</u> from the volume difference:

  • 741 mL - 516 mL = 225 mL

A buffer contains 0.19 mol of propionic acid (C2H5COOH) and 0.26 mol of sodium propionate (C2H5COONa) in 1.20 L. You may want to
Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

It is known that pK_{a} of propionic acid = 4.87

And, initial concentration of  propionic acid = \frac{0.19}{1.20}

                                                                       = 0.158 M

Concentration of sodium propionate = \frac{0.26}{1.20}[/tex]

                                                             = 0.216 M

Now, in the given situation only propionic acid and sodium propionate are present .

Hence,      pH = pK_{a} + log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})

                       = 4.87 + log \frac{0.216}{0.158}

                        = 4.87 + log (1.36)

                        = 5.00

  • Therefore, when 0.02 mol NaOH is added  then,

     Moles of propionic acid = 0.19 - 0.02

                                              = 0.17 mol

Hence, concentration of propionic acid = \frac{0.17}{1.20 L}

                                                                 = 0.14 M

and,      moles of sodium propionic acid = (0.26 + 0.02) mol

                                                                  = 0.28 mol

Hence, concentration of sodium propionic acid will be calculated as follows.

                        \frac{0.28 mol}{1.20 L}

                           = 0.23 M

Therefore, calculate the pH upon addition of 0.02 mol of NaOH as follows.

             pH = pK_{a} + log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})

                       = 4.87 + log \frac{0.23}{0.14}

                        = 4.87 + log (1.64)

                        = 5.08

Hence, the pH of the buffer after the addition of 0.02 mol of NaOH is 5.08.

  • Therefore, when 0.02 mol HI is added  then,

     Moles of propionic acid = 0.19 + 0.02

                                              = 0.21 mol

Hence, concentration of propionic acid = \frac{0.21}{1.20 L}

                                                                 = 0.175 M

and,      moles of sodium propionic acid = (0.26 - 0.02) mol

                                                                  = 0.24 mol

Hence, concentration of sodium propionic acid will be calculated as follows.

                        \frac{0.24 mol}{1.20 L}

                           = 0.2 M

Therefore, calculate pH upon addition of 0.02 mol of HI as follows.

             pH = pK_{a} + log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})

                       = 4.87 + log \frac{0.2}{0.175}

                        = 4.87 + log (0.114)

                        = 4.98

Hence, the pH of the buffer after the addition of 0.02 mol of HI is 4.98.
