garri49 [273]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

What i have shown below in the image attached is a hypothetical nuclear fusion reaction that attempts to produce a gold nucleus by fusion of copper and barium.

This is not possible because nuclear fusion can only occur with two light nuclei and not two heavy nuclei such as copper and barium.

Hence, this reaction is not possible.

What are the similarities and differences between light microscopes used by early scientists and light microscopes used today?
Aleks [24]
Electron microscopes differ from light microscopes in that they produce an image of a specimen by using a beam of electrons rather than a beam of light. Electrons have much a shorter wavelength than visible light, and this allows electron microscopes to produce higher-resolution images than standard light microscopes

What is the percent of hydrogen by mass in CH4O?<br> (H:1.00 amu, C: 12.01 amu, O: 16.00 amu)
cricket20 [7]

The mass percent of hydrogen in CH₄O is 12.5%.

<h3>What is the mass percent?</h3>

Mass percent is the mass of the element divided by the mass of the compound or solute.

  • Step 1: Calculate the mass of the compound.

mCH₄O = 1 mC + 4 mH + 1 mO = 1 (12.01 amu) + 4 (1.00 amu) + 1 (16.00 amu) = 32.01 amu

  • Step 2: Calculate the mass of hydrogen in the compound.

mH in mCH₄O = 4 mH = 4 (1.00 amu) = 4.00 amu

  • Step 3: Calculate the mass percent of hydrogen in the compound.

%H = (mH in mCH₄O / mCH₄O) × 100%

%H = 4.00 amu / 32.01 amu × 100% = 12.5%

The mass percent of hydrogen in CH₄O is 12.5%.

Which of the following sources of pollution would be the most difficult to track and regulate? a. lawn fertilizer runoff b. a wa
VashaNatasha [74]

a. lawn fertilizer runoff

 Pollution as a result of lawn fertilizer runoff would be difficult to track and regulate due to the possible breadth of the area affected. Toxins can be spread throughout the land area as well as be carried downstream if near a water source. Sewer systems, rivers, lakes, ponds, etc. can all be negatively affected by lawn fertilizer runoff. Irrigation or rain water can carry toxins for many miles before the effects are detected. Tracing the source of the toxins would be difficult, especially in a highly populated area.
