The right answer to this question is U-235. It is an isotope of Uranium and it is an unsteady heavy metal used in fission reactions because it can run long chains of reactions. I hope this helps.

Answer:

C. U-235

Explanation:

A fission reaction is one in which an unstable radioisotope breaks down into smaller nuclei when bombarded with energetic particles.

The highly unstable isotope that is often used in fission reactions is U-235. When bombarded with neutrons that atom breaks down to form krypton and barium along with the release of a large amount of energy. The reaction is given as:

₉₂U²³⁵ +  ₀n¹  →   ₃₆Kr⁸⁹  +  ₅₆Ba¹⁴⁴  + 3₀n¹ + 210 Mev energy

A breathing mixture used by deep-sea divers contains helium, oxygen, and carbon dioxide. What is the partial pressure of oxygen
Kay [80]
Answer is: pressure of oxygen is 31,3 kPa.
The total pressure<span> of an ideal gas mixture is the sum of the </span>partial pressures<span> of the gases in the mixture.
p(mixture) = p(helium) + p(oxygen) + p(carbon dioxide).
p(oxygen) = p(mixture) - (p(helium) + p(carbon dioxide)).
p(oxygen) = 101,4 kPa - (68,7 kPa + 1,4 kPa).
p(oxygen) = 101,4 kPa - 70,1 kPa.
p(oxygen) = 31,3 kPa.

Volume is an extensive physical property because it is dependent on the size of the sample.
BaLLatris [955]
Hi,

The statement is true, as the volume of a sample depends on its size.

I hope this helps. If I was not clear enough or if you’d like further explanation please let me know. Also, English is not my first language, so I’m sorry for any mistakes.
