How does nuclear fission of Uranium - 234 result in electricity being generated?

Chemistry
1 answer:
nevsk [136]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The use of Uranium - 234 to generate electricity depends on a fission reaction. The uranium nuclide is bombarded by fast moving neutrons leading to a chain reaction. Control rods and moderators are used to keep the nuclear reaction under control.

As the nuclear reaction proceeds, heat is generated and steam is consequently produced. This steam is used to turn a turbine and electricity is thereby generated.

Ammonia will decompose into nitrogen and hydrogen at high temperature. An industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a flas
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Kp = 0.022

Explanation:

<em>Full question: ...With 2.3 atm of ammonia gas at 32. °C. He then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the partial pressure of hydrogen gas to be 0.69 atm. </em>

<em />

The equilibrium of ammonia occurs as follows:

2NH₃(g) ⇄ N₂(g) + 3H₂(g)

Where Kp is defined as:

Kp = \frac{P_{N_2}P_{H_2}^3}{P_{NH_3}^2}

<em>Where P represents partial pressure of each gas.</em>

<em />

As initial pressure of ammonia is 2.3atm, its equilibrium concentration will be:

P(NH₃) = 2.3atm - 2X

<em>Where X represents reaction coordinate</em>

<em />

Thus, pressure of hydrogen and nitrogen is:

P(N₂) = X

P(H₂) = 3X.

As partial pressure of hydrogen is 0.69atm:

3X = 0.69

X = 0.23atm:

P(NH₃) = 2.3atm - 2(0.23atm) = 1.84atm

P(N₂) = 0.23atm

P(H₂) = 0.69atm

Kp = \frac{0.23atm*0.69atm^3}{1.84atm^2}

<h3>Kp = 0.022</h3>

Which of these substances has the lowest pH? 0.5 M HBr, pOH = 13.5 0.05 M HCl, pOH = 12.7 0.005 M KOH, pOH = 2.3
vagabundo [1.1K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

0.5 M HBr, pOH = 13.5 ; Has the lowest pH

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

From the question;

pH = -Log [OH]

or pH = 14 - pOH

Therefore;

For 0.5 M HBr

[H+] = 0.5 M

pH = - Log [0.5]

     = 0.30

For;  pOH = 13.5

pH = 14 - pOH

     = 14 -13.5

     = 0.5

For; 0.05 M HCl

pH = - log [H+]

[H+] = 0.05

pH = - Log [0.05]

     = 1.30

For; pOH = 12.7

pH = 14 -pOH

     = 14 -12.7

     = 1.30

For;  0.005 M KOH,

pOH = - log [OH]

[OH-] = 0.005

pOH = - Log 0.005

        = 2.30

pH = 14 - 2.30

     = 11.7

For; pOH = 2.3

   pH = 14 -pOH

         = 14- 2.3

         = 11.7
