This is a neutron induced fission, therefore a neutron will be added to the U²³⁵ to cause the reaction, and thus it will be added to the left side. There will be unknown number of neutrons produced and thus we put this on the right hand side.
n₁ + U²³⁵ = Te¹³⁷ + Zr ⁹⁷ + xn1 ( n1 to mean a neutron of mass 1)
To balance the masses on both sides of the equation;
1 + 235 = 137 +97+ x
x = 2
the end reaction will be
n₁ +U²³⁵ = Te¹³⁷ + Zr⁹⁷ + 2 n₁
The three mass value measure are precise mass
<u>explanation</u>
precise mass is term use to describe data from experiment that have been repeated several times. An experiment that yield tightly grouped set of data it has a high precision. 8.93 , 8.94 and 8.92 are precise mass since they have repeated severally
Answer:
d. why matter exists
Explanation:
The kind of questions that chemistry CANNOT answer is "why matter exists".
In Chemistry, question of how the properties, composition and structure of substances are is answered. Also, the transformations that these substances undergo, and the energy that they release or absorbe during the transformation processes are revealed in chemistry.
Chemistry can answer the question of what forms of matter exists but cannot answer why matter actually exists.
The answer is 0.975 L
Volume = mol/Molarity
We have molarity (0.788 M) and we need mol and volume. Let's first calculate number of moles of CaCl2 in 85.3 g:
Molar mass of CaCl2 is sum of atomic masses of Ca and Cl:
Mr(CaCl2) = Ar(Ca) + 2Ar(Cl) = 40 + 2 * 35.45 = 40 + 70.9 = 110.9 g/mol
So, if 110.9 g are in 1 mol, 85.3 g will be in x mol:
110.9 g : 1 mole = 85.3 g : x
x = 85.3 g * 1 mole / 110.9
x = 0.769 moles
Now, calculate the volume:
V = 0.769/0.788
V = 0.975 L
