why is deuterium-tritium reaction the most promising nuclear fusion reaction for future energy production?

Chemistry
1 answer:
lubasha [3.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The deuterium-tritium (DT, Figure 2) reaction is the most useful for fusion energy because it most easily overcomes the Coulomb repulsion, and it has the highest energy release among laboratory-feasible reactions.

Explanation:

When a deuterium nucleus (2H) and a tritium nucleus (3H) combine, the result is a helium nucleus and a very energetic neutron. Under the right circumstances, the energy released is sufficient to induce further fusion reactions.

Compared to visible light, an electromagnetic wave that has a longer wavelength will also have ________.
Anestetic [448]

Question∵

Compared to visible light, an electromagnetic wave that has a longer wavelength will also have?

Answer:

Hi, There! -Randp12- My Name Is jay I'm here to help! :)

<u><em>The correct answer is lower frequency.</em></u>

Explanation:

Information to  Support My Answer :D

it is visible that wavelength and frequency follow inverse relation. For increase in wavelength, the value of frequency decreases and vice-versa.

Therefore  for higher wavelength, the electromagnetic wave will also have lower frequency.

Hope this helps!

If the average atomic mass of hydrogen in nature is 1.0079, what does that tell you about the percent composition of H-1 and H-2
vovangra [49]

Answer:

That the isotope H-1 is the most abundant in nature.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the average atomic mass of an element is computed considering the mass of each isotope and the percent abundance each, for hydrogen we would set up something like this:

m_H=m_{H_1}*\%abund_{H_1}+m_{H_2}*\%abund_{H_2}

Moreover, since the isotope notation H-1 and H-2 means that the atomic mass of H-1 is 1 amu, that of H-2 is 2 amu and the average one is 1.0079 amu, we can infer that the most of the hydrogen in nature is H-1 as the most of it composes the average hydrogen atom.

Best regards!
