Fission and fusion are alike in many ways. However, one difference is

Chemistry
1 answer:
Annette [7]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Fusion vs Fission

In fission, energy is gained by splitting apart heavy atoms, for example uranium, into smaller atoms such as iodine, caesium, strontium, xenon and barium, to name just a few. However, fusion is combining light atoms, for example two hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium, to form the heavier helium. Both reactions release energy which, in a power plant, would be used to boil water to drive a steam generator, thus producing electricity.

How do you know if the reaction is exothermic
MArishka [77]
Hey there!
Exothermic reactions release heat, causing its temperature to fall. If the reaction is lessening the temperature of the object while releasing all the heat, then you know that the reaction is indeed exothermic. Hope this helps!

What is a result of the unequal electron sharing in a water molecule?
Katarina [22]

Answer:

The right choice is  c. Water molecules have a weakly positive hydrogen end.

Explanation:

The unequal sharing of electrons in water molecule gives a slight negative charge near its oxygen atom ( see image below) and a slight positive charge near its hydrogen atoms. A neutral molecule that has a partial positive charge at one end and a partial negative charge at the other, it is a polar molecule.

so

a. Water molecules have a nonpolar bond.

It is wrong choice because water has polar bond .

b. Water molecules have a weakly positive oxygen end.  

Also, a wrong choice due to water molecule gives a slight negative charge near its oxygen atom.

c. Water molecules have a weakly positive hydrogen end.  

This is the right choice.

d. Water molecules have two oxygen and two hydrogen atoms

It is wrong choice because water has one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms

<u>So, the right choice is</u>

c. Water molecules have a weakly positive hydrogen end.
