What two forces act in the nucleus to create a 'nuclear tug-of-war'?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alex787 [66]3 years ago

Answer:

Electrostatic repulsion, strong nuclear force

Explanation:

The nucleus consists of protons and neutrons. protons are positively charged while neutrons possess no charge.

Since protons are positively charged, they repel each other strongly (like charges repel). This strong repulsion of like charges makes the nucleus somewhat unstable leading to spontaneous fission of heavy nuclei.

However, an opposing force called nuclear attractive force tends to hold the nucleons together. This attraction occurs when two nucleons are bonded by a particle called a π meson.

Hence, the two forces that act in the nucleus to create a  'nuclear tug-of-war' are electrostatic repulsion and a strong nuclear force.

If you increase the solute amount but keep the solution volume the same what
solmaris [256]

Answer: Molarity increases

Explanation:

Molarity, also known as concentration in moles/dm3 or g/dm3, is calculated by dividing the amount of solute dissolved by the volume of solvent. So, Molarity (c) = amount of solute (n) / volume (v)

i.e c = n/v

Hence, molarity is directly proportional to the amount of solute dissolved, and inversely proportional to the volume of solvent.

Thus, at same volume, any increase in solute amount increases molarity while a decrease will also decreases molarity.

What is the number of moles of chemical units represented by 9.03x10^24? And how do I show work? (DUMB IT DOWN PLEASE)
Goryan [66]
You have to use avagados number... so toy take your starting number and multiple by 1/avagados number which is like 6.002^23 and that will equal your number of males... avagado always associates with moles... look up that exact number though bc I cant remember it
