Answer:

In order to initiate most fission reactions, an atom is bombarded by a neutron to produce an unstable isotope, which undergoes fission. When neutrons are released during the fission process, they can initiate a chain reaction of continuous fission which sustains itself.

If the heating curve is reversed, what describes the boiling point?

GalinKa [24]

Boiling is the process of converting a substance from liquid state to gaseous state. If the heating curve is reversed, the process also is reversed from converting gaseous state to liquid state. In this case, the reverse of boiling is condensation. So the answer is point of condensation.

Mexico City has an elevation of 7400 ft above sea level. Its normal atmospheric pressure is 589 mm Hg. At what temperature does

IRISSAK [1]

Given that the volume and amount of water are kept constant,
P/T = constant
P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂
Normal atmospheric pressure is 746 mmHg and normal boiling point of water is 100 °C.
746/100 = 589/T₂
T₂ = 79.0 °C

The reaction 2a → a2 was experimentally determined to be second order with a rate constant, k, equal to 0.0265 m–1min–1. if

katovenus [111]

The integrated rate law for a second-order reaction is given by:

$\frac{1}{[A]t} = \frac{1}{[A]0} + kt$
