Please help me is my final 2. Which of the following is a fission reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Shtirlitz [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Uranium-235 absorbing a neutron and breaking into Barium-141,  Krypton-92 and three neutrons

Explanation:

A fission reaction is said to have occurred when an unstable nucleus is bombarded with a neutron such that it disintegrates into daughter nuclei and produces more neutrons in the process. Hence, Uranium-235 absorbing a neutron and breaking into Barium-141,  Krypton-92 and three neutrons is a fission reaction.

This fission reaction is often a self sustaining reaction. The neutrons produced in the reaction bombards more of the parent nucleus and the process continues indefinitely(chain reaction).

Control rods and moderators are used to keep the chain reaction in check.

How many grams of h3po4 are in 255 ml of a 4.50 m solution of h3po4?
murzikaleks [220]

H3PO4 has molecular weight of approximately 98 grams per mole. 4.50 M is equal to 4.50 mole per 1000 mL solution of H3PO4. 255 mL times 4.50 mol /1000 mL times 98 g/mol is equal to 112.455 grams. Note that I automatically equate 1 Liter to 1000 mL since the given volume is in mL for easier computation.

Distinguish between a solution in general and an aqueous solution
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

  • What distinguish a solution in general from an aqueous solution is the solvent. A solution in general may contain any solvent, which may be solid, liquid or gas, while an aqueous solution is formed with water as solvent.

Explanation:

A solution in general is a homogeneous mixture in which a substance, named solute, is dissolved, in other substance, name solvent.

Solutions may be in solid, liquid or gas state. There are many kind of solvents. Usually, in a lab you work with liquid solutions. Some liquid solvents are: ethanol, glycerin, hexane, benzene, and water, among many others.

Aqueous solution is a solution where the solvent is water. Of course, the solute may be any one: NaCl, sugar, ethanol, an acid, a base, a salt.

What distinguish a solution in general and an aqueous solution is the solvent.

The equation of which of the below scientists could be used to find the wavelength of the emission lines of the hydrogen atom:
mihalych1998 [28]

The equation that scientists could use to find the wavelength of the emission lines of the hydrogen atom would be that of Balmer.

The wavelength of the emission lines of the hydrogen atom can be derived using the Balmer series:

        1/λ  = R_H (1/4 - 1/n^2)

Where λ = wavelength, R_H = Rydberg constant, and n = level of the original orbital.

The equation becomes applicable in getting the wavelength of emitted light when electrons in hydrogen atoms transition from higher (n) orbital to lower orbital (2)  levels.

More on the Balmer series can be found here: brainly.com/question/5295294
