Which of the following is true about nuclear fission?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

If you add the masses of all the products after fission, they are LESS than the mass of the reactants.

Explanation:

A nuclear fission reaction is a radioactive reaction which in which a heavy nucleus spontaneously disintegrates into 2 lighter nuclei and some neutrons with a release of large amount of energy.

When nuclear fission occurs, a mass deficit between the decaying nuclei and the product occurs. It is this mass that actually yields the energy that is produced as a by product of the reaction.

A Rectangular Prism has a height of 4cm, a width of 5cm, a length of 1.2 cm, and a mass of 85,000 g. What is it's density?
wolverine [178]

Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Volume (V) = l x w x h

V = 4 x 5 x 1.2

V = 20 x 1.2

V = 24

Density = Mass/Volume  or D = M/V  

D = 85,000/24

D = 3541.66666666

Determine the empirical formula for compounds that have the following analyses: a. 66.0% barium and 34.0% chlorine b. 80.38% bis
almond37 [142]

Answer: a) BaCl_2

b)  BiO_3H_3

Explanation:

If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.

So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

a) Mass of Ba= 66.06 g

Mass of Cl = 34.0 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of Ba =\frac{\text{ given mass of ba}}{\text{ molar mass of Ba}}= \frac{66.06g}{137g/mole}=0.48moles

Moles of Cl = \frac{\text{ given mass of Cl}}{\text{ molar mass of Cl}}= \frac{34g}{35.5g/mole}=0.96moles[/tex]

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For Ba = \frac{0.48}{0.48}=1

For O =\frac{0.96}{0.48}=2

The ratio of Ba: Cl= 1:2

Hence the empirical formula is BaCl_2

b) Mass of Bi= 80.38 g

Mass of O= 18.46 g

Mass of H = 1.16 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of Bi =\frac{\text{ given mass of ba}}{\text{ molar mass of Ba}}= \frac{80.38g}{209g/mole}=0.38moles

Moles of O= \frac{\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}= \frac{18.46g}{16g/mole}=1.15moles

Moles of H=\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{1.16g}{1g/mole}=1.16moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For Bi= \frac{0.38}{0.38}=1

For O =\frac{1.15}{0.38}=3

For H=\frac{1.16}{0.38}=3

The ratio of Bi: O: H= 1:3: 3

Hence the empirical formula is BiO_3H_3
