Answer:

U⁴⁺  

Explanation:

Fluorine stabilizes metals in higher oxidation states with high M:F ratios.

Hard acids prefer to bind to hard bases.

U⁴⁺ is the hardest acid in the list and F⁻ is a hard base, so an eight-coordinate complex of U⁴⁺ is the most stable.

What is the binding energy of a nucleus that has a mass defect of 5.81*10-^29 kg
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Choice A: Approximately 5.23 \times 10^{-29} joules.

Explanation:

Apply the famous mass-energy equivalence equation to find the energy that correspond to the \rm 5.81\times 10^{-29} kilograms of mass.

E = m \cdot c^{2},

where

  • E stands for energy,
  • m stands for mass, and
  • c is the speed of light in vacuum.

The speed of light in vacuum is a constant. However, finding the right units for this value can simplify the calculations a lot. What should be the unit of c?

The mass given is in the appropriate SI unit:

Mass is in kilograms.

Thus, proceed with the speed of light in SI units. The SI unit for speed is meters per second. For the speed of light, c \approx \rm 3.00\times 10^{8}\;m\cdot s^{-1}.

Apply the mass-energy equivalence:

\begin{aligned} E &= m \cdot c^{2} \\ &= \rm 5.81\times 10^{-29}\; kg \times {\left(3.00\times 10^{8}\; m\cdot s^{-1}\right)}^{2}\\ &\approx \rm 5.23\times 10^{-12}\;kg\cdot m^{2}\cdot s^{-2} \end{aligned}.

The unit of energy is not in joules. Don't be alerted. Consider the definition of a joule of energy. One joule is the work done on an object when a force of one newton acts on the object in the direction of the force through the distance of one meter. (English Wikipedia.)

\rm 1\; J = 1\; N \times 1\; m.

However, a force of one newton is defined as the force required to accelerated an object with a mass of one kilogram (not gram) at a rate of one meter per second squared. (English Wikipedia.)

\begin{aligned}\rm 1\; J &= \rm 1\; N \times 1\; m\\ & = \rm \left(1\; kg\times 1\; m\cdot s^{-2}\right)\times 1\; m\\ &= \rm 1\; kg \cdot m^{2}\cdot s^{-2}\end{aligned}.

In other words, the mass defect here is also \rm 5.23\times 10^{-12}\; J.

What is an advantage of using natural gas rather than a coal burning power plant?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

I hope it helps u

Explanation:

The advantages of using natural gas rather than coal are the following,

  • Natural gas is present in large amount than coal.
  • Natural gas is less costly than other fossil fuel sources of energy.
  • It increases security by decreasing dependence.
  • Natural gas is more environmentally friendly.
  • Natural gas is much safer to store.
  • It is reliable.
  • Natural gas is a fossil fuel, though the global warming emissions from its combustion are much lower than those from coal or oil.
  • Natural gas emits 50 to 60 percent less carbon dioxide (CO2) when combusted in a new, efficient natural gas-power plant compared with emissions from a typical new coal plant.
