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

Given the reaction: A + B <--> C + D
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

A.) 4.0

Explanation:

The general equilibrium expression looks like this:

K = \frac{[C]^{c} [D]^{d} }{[A]^{a} [B]^{b} }

In this expression,

-----> K = equilibrium constant

-----> uppercase letters = molarity

-----> lowercase letters = balanced equation coefficients

In this case, the molarity's do not need to be raised to any numbers because the coefficients in the balanced equation are all 1. You can find the constant by plugging the given molarities into the equation and simplifying.

K = \frac{[C]^{c} [D]^{d} }{[A]^{a} [B]^{b} }                                       <----- Equilibrium expression

K = \frac{[2 M] [2 M]}{[1 M] [1 M] }                                     <----- Insert molarities

K = \frac{4}{1  }                                                <----- Multiply

K = 4                                                <----- Divide

describe how the discoveries of scientist over time have contributed to our current understanding of atom
Olenka [21]

Answer:

In 1897, the British physicist J. J. Thomson (1856–1940) proved that atoms were not the most basic form of matter. He demonstrated that cathode rays could be deflected, or bent, by magnetic or electric fields, which indicated that cathode rays consist of charged particles (Figure  2.2.2 ). More important, by measuring the extent of the deflection of the cathode rays in magnetic or electric fields of various strengths, Thomson was able to calculate the mass-to-charge ratio of the particles. These particles were emitted by the negatively charged cathode and repelled by the negative terminal of an electric field. Because like charges repel each other and opposite charges attract, Thomson concluded that the particles had a net negative charge; these particles are now called electrons. Most relevant to the field of chemistry, Thomson found that the mass-to-charge ratio of cathode rays is independent of the nature of the metal electrodes or the gas, which suggested that electrons were fundamental components of all atoms.

Convert 90.23 kPa into atm
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>0.89 atm </h2>

Explanation:

To convert from kPa to atm we use the conversion

101.325 kPa = 1 atm

If

101.325 kPa = 1 atm

Then

90.23 kPa will be

\frac{90.23}{101.325}  \\  =0.89050086...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.89 atm</h3>

Hope this helps you
