Why is it advantageous to produce plutonium -239

Chemistry

By definition, a plutonium 239 is a specific kind of nuclear isotope where it is known to have produced from transmutation of uranium in fuel rods. In addition, among it, main advantages would be that it has a significantly higher chance of being involved in a nuclear fission as compared to uranium.

The plutonium is considered to be advantageous. This can be explained considering the following reasons

a) It is an isotope of Plutonium which is radioactive and is being produced from uranium by its transmutation.

b) It is also can be considered as potential and important candidate of production of energy by its nuclear fission in comparison to Uranium

2. What happens when hydrochloric acid (HCl) is added to the solution? Do the relative concentrations of H+, CH3COOH, or
iogann1982 [59]

Answer: A molecule of hydrochloric acid, for example, is composed of a hydrogen atom and a chlorine atom. When these molecules dissolve into water, they separate into a positively charged hydrogen ion and a negatively charged chlorine ion. ... Only some of the molecules of weak acids disassociate when added to water.

What are the two basic ways in which ions form from atoms?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

An ion is an atom or group of atoms that has an electric charge. When an atom loses an electron, it loses a negative charge and becomes a positive ion. When an atom gains an electron, it gains a negative charge and becomes a negative ion. a sodium ion forms when a sodium atom loses one electron and becomes positively charged. a chloride ion forms when a chlorine atom gains one electron and becomes negatively charged.

Hope this helps,

The following balanced equation shows the decomposition of ammonia (NH3) into nitrogen (N2) and hydrogen (H2). 2NH3 → N2 + 3H2 A
Triss [41]
The decomposition of ammonia is characterized by the following decomposition equation:
                                  2NH₃<span>   →   N</span>₂  <span> +   3H</span>₂   

The mole ratio of N₂  :  H₂  is  1  :  3

    If the number of moles of N₂  =  0.0351 mol
    Then the number of moles of H₂  =  0.0351 mol  × 3
                                                         = 0.1053 mol

The number of moles of hydrogen gas produced when 0.0351 mol of Nitrogen gas is produced after the decomposition of Ammonia is  0.105 mol (OPTION 3).
