7 0

Answer:

B. Nuclear fission

Explanation:

Nuclear binding energy is used to determine whether fission or fusion will be a favorable process. The mass defect of a nucleus represents the mass of the energy binding the nucleus, and is the difference between the mass of a nucleus and the sum of the masses of the nucleons of which it is composed.

Using the Acceleration Equation
Maru [420]

Answer:

Change in velocity (\Delta v) is acceleration (a) times time (t)

Acceleration a=1.2\ m/s^{2}

Time t=10\ s

So \Delta v=at=1.2\ m/s^{2}*10\ s=12\ m/s

The initial velocity is then 16\ m/s-12\ m/s=4\ m/s

Easy Answer: 4m/s

If I have a +2 oxidation number do I give up or accept electrons?​
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Give up 2 electrons.

Explanation:

Is this ever a good question!!!

Electrons have a minus charge

Protons have a plus charge.

You need to understand it thoroughly.  I used to explain it this way.

Suppose the protons and electrons are playing a game and the electrons commit a foul that leaves them with 2 men short.

That means there are 2 unguarded plus's around. The result is that the minuses have lost two men who are in the sin bin. (I watch a lot of hockey).

So a +2 means that the electrons have lost two of their players to penalties.

Put in the vocabulary of your question, you give up 2 electrons.

Why chemically did the prescribing of thalidomide for morning sickness in pregnant women lead to tragic consequences, including
Dominik [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The drug thalidomide with molecular formula C13H10N2O4 was widely prescribed by doctors for morning sickness in pregnant women in the 1960s.

The drug was sold as a racemic mixture  (+)(R)-thalidomide and (-)(S)-thalidomide.

Unfortunately, only the  (+)(R)-thalidomide exhibited the required effect while (-)(S)-thalidomide is a teratogen.

This goes a long way to underscore the importance of separation of enantiomers in drug production.

Therefore, all the teratogenic effects observed when using the drug thalidomide was actually as a result of the presence of (-)(S)-thalidomide, the unwanted enantiomer.
