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

Chemistry
1 answer:
nevsk [136]2 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.

Two samples of matter differ in temperature by 20°C. What is the difference in temperature of these two samples using the Kelvin
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The difference is 293.15 Kelvin.

Explanation:

Given data:

Temperature difference of matter = 20°C

Temperature difference of matter in kelvin = ?

Solution;

Formula:

0°C +273.15

now we will put the values instead of 0.

20°C + 273.15 = 293.15 K

Thus, the temperature difference between two sample is 293.15 K.

Explanation:

1. subatomic particles. 

2.proton, electron and neutron

3.The atomic mass of an element is actually the sum of the MASSES of protons and neutrons in AN atom of that element

4.An element's atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the nuclei of any of its atoms

5. Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

For krypton:

Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number = 84 - 36 = 48

6. electron, lightest stable subatomic particle known. It carries a negative charge of 1.602176634 × 10−19 coulomb, which is considered the basic unit of electric charge. The rest mass of the electron is 9.1093837015 × 10−31 kg

7.The center of the atom is called a nucleus

8. Negatively charged particles are found in multiple layers outside the nucleus of the atom. These particles are called electrons, and they orbit in various energy levels around the atom's nucleus.

9. A charged particle is also called an ion
