In a solid, molecules are packed together, and it keeps its shape. Liquids take the shape of the container. Gases spread out to fill the container. Solid is one of the three main states of matter, along with liquid and gas.

An example of a reaction that occurs within the core of a nuclear reactor is the nuclear fission reaction given:
- ²³⁵₉₂U + ¹₀n ---> ⁹⁰₃₈Sr + ¹⁴³₅₄ + 3 ¹₀n
<h3>What is a nuclear reactor?</h3>
A nuclear reactor is a device which produces electrical energy as a result of the nuclear reactions that take place within it.
In a nuclear reactor, the reaction that takes place within the core is a nuclear fission chain reaction.
In a nuclear fission reaction, the nucleus of larger atoms are split into the nucleus of smaller atoms when fast moving neutrons are used to bombard the nucleus of the large atom. The fission of the nucleus of the large atom results in the formation of atoms of lighter nucleus as well as more protons which then bombard more nucleus of the large atoms resulting in a chain reaction.
The chain reaction occurring within the nuclear reactor core is controlled by the insertion of boron rods which absorbs the excess neutrons produced.
An example of a reaction that occurs within the core of a nuclear reactor is given below:
²³⁵₉₂U + ¹₀n ---> ⁹⁰₃₈Sr + ¹⁴³₅₄ + 3 ¹₀n

Answer:
Forces acting on an object may be balanced or unbalanced. When the forces acting on an object have <u>equal</u> strength and act in opposite directions, they are <u>balanced</u>. These forces cancel out one another, and the <u>motion</u> of the object does not <u>change</u>. When the forces acting on an object are <u>unbalanced</u>, they do not cancel out one another. An unbalanced force acting on an object results in the object’s motion <u>changing</u>. The object may change its <u>speed</u> (speed up or slow
down), or it may change its <u>direction</u>. <u>Friction</u> is a force that resists the motion or the tendency toward motion between two objects in contact with each other. <u>Gravity</u> is a force that pulls objects toward one another. For example, Earth pulls all objects toward it.
Explanation:
Answer:
65.08 g.
Explanation:
- For the reaction, the balanced equation is:
<em>2AlCl₃ + 3Br₂ → 2AlBr₃ + 3Cl₂,</em>
2.0 mole of AlCl₃ reacts with 3.0 mole of Br₂ to produce 2.0 mole of AlBr₃ and 3.0 mole of Cl₂.
- Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 36.2 grams of AlCl₃:
<em>n = mass/molar mass</em> = (36.2 g)/(133.34 g/mol) = <em>0.2715 mol.</em>
<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>
2.0 mole of AlCl₃ reacts with → 3.0 mole of Br₂, from the stichiometry.
0.2715 mol of AlCl₃ reacts with → ??? mole of Br₂.
∴ The no. of moles of Br₂ reacts completely with 0.2715 mol (36.2 g) of AlCl₃ = (0.2715 mol)(3.0 mole)/(2.0 mole) = 0.4072 mol.
<em>∴ The mass of Br₂ reacts completely with 0.2715 mol (36.2 g) of AlCl₃ = no. of moles of Br₂ x molar mass</em> = (0.4072 mol)(159.808 g/mol
) = <em>65.08 g.</em>
