How one atom undergoing fission can cause up to three other atoms to undergo fission.

Chemistry
1 answer:
mamaluj [8]3 years ago

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 you have 1.5 grams of silver nitrate, how many grams of silver could<br> you produce?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

0.95g of Ag we can produce

Explanation:

To solve this question we have to convert the mass of silver nitrate (AgNO₃) to moles. The moles of silver nitrate = Moles of Ag. Then, with molar mass of Ag we can know the mass of silver:

<em>Moles AgNO₃ -Molar mass: 169.87g/mol-:</em>

1.5g * (1mol / 169.87g) = 0.0088 moles Ag

<em>Mass Ag -Molar mass: 107.87g/mol-:</em>

0.0088 moles Ag * (107.87g / mol) =

<h3>0.95g of Ag we can produce</h3>

How do atoms form a new substance?
dezoksy [38]
            <span> Atoms combine as the electrons from each atom are attracted to the nuclei of the atoms. This results in bonds ranging from 100% covalent to bonds with high ionic character. The combination of atoms to form compounds occurs when the compounds being formed are at lower energy than the original atoms.</span>

Which of the following is NOT true regarding Rutherford's Gold Foil experiment?
erastova [34]

Answer:

The area around the nucleus must be of low mass.

Explanation:

Rutherford`s experiment showed that there are some positive charges in the center of the atoms, and because they are all together, they will give a great mass to the atom.

It was quite different from Thomson`s experiment, in which it was thought that the negative charges were mixed with the positive charges, around the atom (like a Pudding Model). In Rutherford`s experiment, because the direction of beta particles, it was the prediction of the positive nucleus.

Hope this info is useful.
