Balanced equation : C. CH₄ + 4Cl₂⇒ CCl₄+ 4HCl
<h3>Further explanation </h3>
Equalization of chemical reactions can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:
1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c, etc.
2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index (subscript) between reactant and product
3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1
Reaction
CH₄ + Cl₂⇒ CCl₄+ HCl
aCH₄ + bCl₂⇒ CCl₄+ cHCl
C, left=a, right=1⇒a=1
H, left=4a, right=c⇒4a=c⇒4.1=c⇒c=4
Cl, left=2b, right=4+c⇒2b=4+c⇒2b=4+4⇒2b=8⇒b=4
The equation becomes :
CH₄ + 4Cl₂⇒ CCl₄+ 4HCl
Answer:
The correct option is e
Explanation:
Hydrogen bond is an intermolecular interaction/bonding that are formed between an electronegative atom (such as nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine) and a hydrogen atom. They are weak intermolecular bonds compared to covalent bonds but account for the high boiling point of water because of the strong hydrogen bond presence between the water molecules. Water molecules form hydrogen bonds between each other; since an oxygen atom (in a water molecule) has two lone pairs on it's outermost shell, it forms an hydrogen bond with two hydrogen atoms of other water molecule. Due to the fluidity of liquid water molecules, hydrogen bonds keep getting broken (although recreated/formed almost immediately), hence, individual hydrogen bonds in liquid water does not exist for long.
In the explanation above, it was stated that the strength of the hydrogen bond in water is the reason for it's high boiling point. The atoms in a water molecule are bent NOT linear hence the strength of hydrogen bond does not depend on the linearity of the atoms involved in the bond.
Answer: Radioactive waste
Explanation:
The nuclear fission reaction consists of heavy atomic particles or heavy nucleus, like plutonium and uranium and in radioactive heavy metals. In the fission reaction the nucleus get split into equal masses of particles. This process is associated with release of large amount of energy. The fission of radioactive waste can cause deadly mutations in living beings.
