Which of the following best describes a fission reaction involving lithium? (1 point)

Chemistry

1 answer:

Feliz [49]3 years ago

6 0

Answer:

D. The nucleus of an atom of lithium splits, resulting in smaller fragments and the release of a large amount of energy.

Explanation:

Fission is the splitting of a nucleus, so this is the only option that involves fission.

A is wrong. Li atoms do not bond to form molecules. Instead, the nuclei are immersed in a sea of electrons.

B is wrong. The joining of two nuclei is fusion.

C is wrong. Adding an electron to an atom of lithium is not a nuclear reaction.

Answer:

Salt, (Coal is a mineral but barely, but Salt is your best answer), (And if it's multiple choice its Salt and Coal)

Explanation:

Salt (NaCl), sodium chloride, mineral substance of great importance to human and animal health, as well as to industry. The mineral form halite, or rock salt, is sometimes called common salt to distinguish it from a class of chemical compounds called salts.

Approximately how many ice cubes must melt to cool 650 milliliters of water from 29°C to 0°C? Assume that each ice cube contains

qwelly [4]

Answer : The number of ice cubes melt must be, 13

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of water.

$\text{Mass of water}=\text{Density of water}\times \text{Volume of water}$

Density of water = 1.00 g/mL

Volume of water = 650 mL

$\text{Mass of water}=1.00g/mL\times 650mL=650g$

Now we have to calculate the heat released on cooling.

Heat released on cooling = $m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)$

where,

m = mass of water = 650 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = $4.18J/g^oC$

$T_2$ = final temperature = $29^oC$

$T_2$ = initial temperature = $0^oC$

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

Heat released on cooling = $650g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (29-0)^oC$

Heat released on cooling = 78793 J = 78.793 kJ (1 J = 0.001 kJ)

As, 1 ice cube contains 1 mole of water.

The heat required for 1 ice cube to melt = 6.02 kJ

Now we have to calculate the number of ice cubes melted.

Number of ice cubes melted = $\frac{\text{Total heat}}{\text{Heat for 1 ice cube}}$

Number of ice cubes melted = $\frac{78.793kJ}{6.02kJ}$

Number of ice cubes melted = 13.1 ≈ 13

Therefore, the number of ice cubes melt must be, 13

Which way will the reaction shift if the volume is cut in half? a. toward the reactants b. toward the products c. the reaction w

erica [24]

The reaction will shift toward the reactants if the volume is cut in half.

<h3 /><h3>Reactants </h3>

The initial components of a chemical reaction are called reactants. Chemical bonds between reactants are broken and new ones are created in order to create products. Reactants and products are listed on the left and right sides, respectively, of the arrow in a chemical equation.

Substances on both sides of an arrow that points left and right are both reactants and products in a chemical process (the reaction proceeds in both directions simultaneously). A chemical equation that is balanced has the same amount of atoms of each element in the reactants and products. Around 1900–1920 is when the word "reactant" was first used. There are instances when the word "reagent" is interchangeable.

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Filtration

Explanation:

Filtration would be best because the sand particles would be trapped in the filter paper and the water would go through so the mixture would be separated
