1. A heavy nucleus (U235 or Pu239), when bombarded by slow moving neutrons, split into two
or more nuclei.
2. Two or more neutrons are produced by fission of each nucleus.
3. Huge amount of energy is produced as a result of nuclear fission.
4. All the fission fragments are radioactive, giving off β and radiations.
<span>5. The atomic weights of fission products range from about </span>70 to 160.
6. The nuclear chain reactions can be controlled and maintained steadily by absorbing a
desired number of neutrons. This process is used in nuclear reactor.
<span>7. All the fission reactions are self-propagating chain-reactions because fission products contain </span>
neutrons (secondary neutrons) which further cause fission in other nuclei.
8. Every secondary neutron, released in the fission process, does not strike a nucleus, some
escape into air and hence a chain reaction cannot be maintained.
<span>9. The number of neutrons, resulting from a single fission, is known as the multiplication factor. </span>
When the multiplication factor is less than 1, a chain reaction does not take place.
<span>10. The control of chain reaction is necessary in order to maintain a steady reaction. This is </span>
carried out by absorbing a desired number of neutron by employing materials like
percentage of Cd, B or steel.
11. In a nuclear reactor, the multifactor is one. This is achieved by proper arrangement of
<span>fissionable materials.</span>
Answer:
37.14 %
Explanation:
Using the equation, mass, M = D1 * V1
= D2 * V2
Where,
D1 = density of the liquid Nitrogen
D2 = density of gaseous Nitrogen
V1 = volume of the liquid Nitrogen
V2 = volume of the gaseous Nitrogen
Calculating V2,
0.808 * 185 = 1.15 * V2
Volume of Nitrogen after expansion = 129.98 m3.
Volume = L * b * h
= 10 * 10 * 3.5
Volume of the room = 350 m3.
Fraction of air = volume of Nitrogen after expansion/volume of the room * 100
= 129.98/350 *100
= 37.14 %
Answer:
The correct answer is -all of the above.
Explanation:
Muscle fatigue is a reduced ability in work capacity caused by work itself. It is known that altering oxygen is contracting skeletal muscle affects performance. Reduced O2 supply increases the rate of muscle fatigue.
The lactic acid is accumulated as it forms rapidly but the breaking of the lactic acid is slow down, which causes muscle fatigue. Less ATP and glycogen in muscle results in fatigue as the muscle is not able to generate energy to power contractions and therefore contributes to muscle fatigue.
Answer:
Intrusive and Extrusive igneous rocks.
Explanation:
Igneous rocks are defined as those rocks that are formed when magma undergoes the process of crystallization and solidification at or below the earth's surface. For example, Granite, Rhyolite, Gabbro and Diorite.
The igneous rocks are of two different types, namely-
- Intrusive igneous rocks- This type of igneous rocks are formed when the magma crystallizes below or within the earth's crust. For example, Granite.
- Extrusive igneous rocks- This type of igneous rocks are formed when the magma crystallizes and solidifies at the surface of the earth. For example, Basalt.
Answer:
Balanced reaction:
3 H2 (g) + N2 (g) → 2 NH3 (g)
Use stoichiometry to convert g of H2 to g of NH3. The process would be:
g H2 → mol H2 → mol NH3 → g NH3
12.0 g H2 x (1 mol H2 / 2.02 g H2) x (2 mol NH3 / 3 mol H2) x (17.03 g NH3 / 1 mol NH3) = 67.4 g NH3
Explanation: See above
Hope this helps, friend.
