Compare and contrast between nuclear fission and fusion

Chemistry
1 answer:
Drupady [299]3 years ago
8 0

Both create energy. Both require atoms.

Fission is ripping the atoms apart, fusion is forcing them together. Fission takes less energy because it's easier to rip unstable atoms apart but pushing two atoms that have similar charges together is extremely hard. Fission is currently mainstream on earth, but fusion is known for taking place within stars.

Answer:

An experiment is a research method performed within a completely controlled environment that uses groups of individuals ( subjects), one of which the factors being tested are not spplied on, an independent factor of the hypothesys ( to be tested ), for example the resilience of a group of teenagers) and a dependant factor that is applied to check how it varyes depending on the tested factor ( for example, the most challanging experience of their generation)

How do glaciers cause erosion and deposition
koban [17]
Like flowing water, flowing ice erodes the land and deposits the material elsewhere. Glaciers cause erosion in two main ways: plucking and abrasion.
Plucking is the process by which rocks and other sediments are picked up by a glacier. They freeze to the bottom of the glacier and are carried away by the flowing ice.
The other way you'll need more informations because my Knowledges are limited by here.

Which of the following is a definition of a base? O a. behaves as a catalyst. O b. accepts H ions from acids. Oc. turns cloudy w
yan [13]

Answer: b. accepts H^+ ions from acids

Explanation:

According to Arrhenius concept, a base is defined as a substance which donates hydroxide ions (OH^-) when dissolved in water and an acid is defined as a substance which donates hydronium ions (H_3O^+) in water.

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates H^+ ions and a base is defined as a substance which accepts H^+ ions.

NH_3+H_2O\rightarrow NH_4^++OH^-

Here water is donating H^+ ions, and thus act as acid and ammoia NH_3 is accepting H^+ ions from water and thus is a base.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

Thus base is a substance which accepts  H^+ ions from acids.
