Answer:
Option C is correct.
The minimum amount of material that is needed for a fission reaction to keep going is called the critical mass.
Explanation:
Nuclear fission is the term used to describe the breakdown of the nucleus of a parent isotope into daughter nuclei.
Normally, the initial energy supplied for nuclear fission is the energy to initiate the first breakdown of the first set of radioactive isotopes that breakdown. Once that happens, the energy released from the first breakdown is enough to drive further breakdown of numerous isotopas in a manner that leads to more energy generation.
But, for this to be able to be sustained and not fizzle out, a particular amount of radioactive material to undergo nuclear fission must be present. This particular amount is termed 'critical mass'
Hope this Helps!!!
Answer:
The charge of the purple circles should be positive because they represent the nuclei.
Explanation:
Answer:
∴ΔH₂ = - 12,258 KJ
Explanation:
Enthalpy:
Enthalpy is a property of a thermodynamic system. Enthalpy of a system is equal to the sum of internal energy of the system and presser times volume of the system.
The heat absorbes or releases in a closed system is the change of enthalpy of the system.
Given reactions are:
Reaction 1: C₃H₈(g)+5O₂(g)→ 3CO₂(g)+4H₂O, ΔH₁= - 2043 KJ
Reaction 2: 6C₃H₈(g)+30 O₂(g)→ 18 CO₂(g)+24 H₂O, ΔH₂=?
Take a look at reaction 1 and reaction 2, the only difference is that 1 molecule of C₃H₈ is combusted in reaction 1 and 6 molecules of C₃H₈ is combusted in reaction 2.
We can think the reaction 2 as occurring 6 different container and each containers contains 1 molecule of C₃H₈. The enthalpy is an extensive property. Total enthapy of the 6 containers is = 6×(-2043 KJ)
= - 12,258 KJ
∴ΔH₂ = - 12,258 KJ
Answer:
Chemical reaction involves the breaking of bonds in the reactants and formation of bonds in the products. ... If a reaction is exothermic, more energy is released when the bonds of the products are formed than it takes to break the bonds of the reactants. This is the reason for temperature change during a reaction.
Explanation:
Here are just a few everyday demonstrations that temperature changes the rate of chemical reaction: Cookies bake faster at higher temperatures. Bread dough rises more quickly in a warm place than in a cool one.
Answer:
energy
Explanation:
Those are all forms of energy
