The energy released from 1 gram of uranium is more than 1 million times greater than the energy released from 3 grams of coal is True.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nuclear Fission is the process in which splitting of a nucleus takes place that releases free neutrons and lighter nuclei. The fission of heavy elements like "Uranium is highly exothermic" and releases "200 million eV" compared to the energy that is released by burning coal which gives a few eV.

In the given example, it is obvious that the energy released from 1 gram of uranium is more than that of the energy released from 3 grams of coal because the amount of energy released during nuclear fission is millions of times more efficient per mass than that of coal considering only \frac{1}{10}^{th} part of the original nuclei is converted to energy.

If we read the reaction as X + Y → Z + Q it is<br> A. endothermic<br> B. exothermic
Korvikt [17]
As you can see in the picture we have +ΔH so that means for this reaction we need to GET heat. so the answer is A. endothermic :))

Methylpropane (complete and condensed structural formulas)
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

1. Complete structural formula

Methylpropane consists of a chain of three carbons with another carbon atom attached to the middle carbon. Enough H atoms are added to give each C atom a total of four bonds.

The complete structural formula is shown below (There is a C atom at each intersection).

2. Condensed structural formula

A condensed structural formula is designed to be typed on one line.

The molecule has three CH₃ groups attached to a single carbon atom, so the condensed structural formula is  

(CH₃)₃CH

The formula is also often written CH₃CH(CH₃)CH₃ and as (CH₃)₂CHCH₃.
