All atoms consist of a nucleus with protons and neutrons that is surrounded by a sea of electrons. If Uranium-235 is bombarded with a neutron then the atom's atomic number will remain the same but its mass will increase by 1 unit. Thus, it will temporarily become Uranium-236.
The formation of chemical bonds occurs due to the attractive forces between oppositely charged ions (ionic bonds) or by sharing of electrons (covalent bonds).
An atom having tendency of attracting a shared pair of electrons towards itself and this chemical property is said to Electronegativity .
Thus, the attractive forces which draws in surrounding electrons for chemical bonds is electronegativity.
Answer:
Whether something is a molecule or not depends on the type of bond that is formed when its atoms join together. In general, electrons can be shared between atoms (a molecular bond) or electrons can be completely removed from one atom and given to another (an ionic bond). Molecules have molecular bonds.
Answer:
2.038 seconds.
Explanation:
So, in the question above we are given the following parameters in order to solve this question. We are given a rate constant of 0.500 s^-, initial concentration= 0.860 M and final concentration= 0.310 M,the time,t =??.
Assuming that the equation for the first order of reaction is given below,that is;
A ---------------------------------> products.
Recall the formula below;
B= B° e^-kt.
Therefore, e^-kt = B/B°.
-kt = ln B/B°.
kt= ln B°/B.
Where B° and B are the amount of the initial concentration and the amount of the concentration remaining, k is the rate constant and t = time taken for the concentration to decrease.
So, we have; time taken,t = ln( 0.860/.310)/0.500.
==> ln 2.77/0.500.
==> time taken,t =2.038 seconds.
