In the first step of the reaction, which compound is the limiting reagent: sodium hydroxide or the nucleophile

1 answer:

5 0

Since the nucleophile is the actual attacking molecule or molecule that starts the reaction and allows for further steps in the mechanism to occur, it is the limiting reagent, as based on the amount of the nucleophile you have, the reaction will tend to proceed until you run out. The excess would be the sodium hydroxide, it is union part of the solution.

Answer:

The process describes the source of energy of the Sun such that it shines as a result of nuclear fusion of hydrogen taking place.

Explanation:

The Sun generates energy by hydrogen within the Sun undergoing nuclear fusion to form helium.

Nuclear fusion reaction involves combining of two or more atomic nuclei to produce one or more completely different atomic nuclei as well as protons or neutrons, with a loss or gain of mass and the release or absorption of energy.

The process whereby four hydrogen atoms combine to form one helium atom with a mass deficit, which is accounted for by the release of energy, result in the high intense light of the Sun.
