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.

46. True or false. Chemical reactions do not involve changes in the chemical bonds that join

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Chemical reactions do not involve changes in the chemical bonds that join

atoms in compounds :

<u>False</u>

Explanation:

Chemical reaction are the reaction in which old bonds break and new bonds are formed . The formation of new bond result in formation of new compounds . This happen because new bond are result of linking different atoms by the bond.

For example : Water formation from Oxygen and Hydrogen is a chemical process :

$2H_{2}+O_{2}\rightarrow 2H_{2}O$

Original(old) bonds are :

H-H bond in H2 and O-O bonds in O2

In H2 = Hydrogen is joined to Hydrogen

IN O2 = Oxygen is joined to oxygen

New Bonds =

O-H bonds in water (H2O)

Oxygen is joined to hydrogen = New Bond formation

Hence,

<u>Chemical reactions do involve changes in the chemical bonds that join </u>

<u>atoms in compounds</u>

A lake has been infected by some type of new algae that is unknown. Every single day the amount of surface area that the algae t

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

It takes 86 days take to cover half of the lake

Explanation:

In the day #1, the amount of the algae is X,

In the day #2 is 2X

In the day #3 is 2*2*X = X*2²

...

In the day #n the amount of the algae is X*2^(n-1)

Assuming X = 1m³. In the day 87, the area infected was:

1m³*2^(87-1)

7.74x10²⁵m³ is the total area of the lake

the half of this amount is 3.87x10²⁵m³

The time transcurred is:

3.87x10²⁵m³ = 1m³*2^(n-1)

Multiplying for 5 in each side:

ln (3.87x10²⁵) = ln (2^(n-1))

58.9175 = n-1 * 0.6931

85 = n-1

86 = n

Calculate the mols for 4.2g of a Mg<br>

hjlf

Answer:

0.175mol

Explanation:

Mole of a substance can be calculated using the formula as follows:

number of moles (n) = mass (m) ÷ molar mass (MM)

According to this question, there are 4.2g of Magnesium (Mg).

Molar mass of Magnesium = 24g/mol, hence, the number of moles of 4.2g of Mg is as follows:

n = 4.2g ÷ 24g/mol

n = 0.175mol
