Answer:
The table tennis balls represent neutrons that are released when the nucleus splits and cause other nuclei to split
Explanation:
Nuclear fission is defined as the separation of a nucleus into two smaller nuclei.
It takes a neutron to set off a nuclear fission reaction. When that occurs, neutrons are released and those neutrons in turn are what set off other nuclear fissions. This is defined as a Nuclear Fission Chain Reaction. In the model, the one tennis ball that will be thrown will be modeled as the starting neutron that sets of the initial (first) fission. The mouse traps with tennis balls represent the other nucleuses waiting to be struck by the one tennis ball. Once the initial tennis ball strikes the first mouse trap, that mouse trap will release its tennis ball hitting others and continuing the cycle.
It can also be modeled as such:
Answer:
Mo(CO)5 is the intermediate in this reaction mechanism.
Explanation:
The reaction mechanism describes the sequence of elementary reactions that must occur to go from reactants to products. Reaction intermediates are formed in one step and then consumed in a later step of the reaction mechanism.
In this reaction mechanism, Mo(CO)5 is the product of 1st reaction and then it is used as a reactant in 2nd reaction. So, Mo(CO)5 is the reaction intermediates.
The overall balanced equation would be,
Mo(CO)6 + P(CH3) ↔ CO + Mo(CO)5 + P(CH3)3
Answer:
D) The equilibrium lies far to the left
Explanation:
According to the law of mass action, the equilibrium constant K for the reaction at 373K can be calculated as follows:
K = ![\frac{[CO][Cl_{2}]}{[COCl_{2}]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B%5BCO%5D%5BCl_%7B2%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BCOCl_%7B2%7D%5D%7D)
= 2.19×10^{-10}
([X] means = concentration of X)
This means that in the equilibrium the concentration of the reactant (that is in the denominator) will be much higher (around 10^{10} fold) than the concentrations of the products (that are in the numerator), and this means that the equilibrium lies far to the left (to the reactants side) as very small amount of product is being formed.
Answer: A and D, I believe
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
None of the statement is true for both chemical and nuclear reactions. In chemical reactions, mass is always conserved and the type of atoms are also conserved.
