What happens during nuclear reaction that does not happen during a chemical reaction?

A chemical reaction does not create or destroy matter, it simply moves electrons from one atom to another, but does not change the nucleus of the atoms. ... The total mass of the matter can change during a nuclear reaction, the mass loss can convert into energy, which is called the nuclear power.

The sea water has 8.0x10^-1 cg of element strontium. Assuming that all strontium could be recovered, how many grams of strontium

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

984 grams of strontium will be recovered from 9.84x10^8 cubic meter of seawater.

Explanation:

From the question data given is :

volume of strontium in sea water= 9.84x10^8 cubic meter

(1 cubic metre = 1000000 ml)

so 9 .84x10^8 cubic meter

$\frac{9 .84x10^8}{1000000}$ = 984 ml.

density of sea water = 1 gram/ml

from the formula mass of strontium can be calculated.

density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

mass = density x volume

mass = 1 x 984

= 984 grams of strontium will be recovered.

98400 centigram of strontium will be recovered.

Strontium is an alkaline earth metal and is highly reactive.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.93 g

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

The chemical equation;

2C₂H₆(g) + 7O₂(g) → 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(l) ΔH = -3120 kJ

We are required to calculate the mass of ethane that would produce 100 kJ of heat.

From the equation given;

2 moles of ethane burns to produce 3120 Kilo joules of heat

Therefore;

Number of moles that will produce 100 kJ will be;

= (2 × 100 kJ) ÷ 3120 kJ)

= 0.0641 moles

But, molar mass of ethane is 30.07 g/mol

Therefore;

Mass of ethane = 0.0641 moles × 30.07 g/mol

= 1.927 g

= 1.93 g

Thus, the mass of ethane that would produce 100 kJ of heat is 1.93 g

Interstellar space has an average temperature of about 10 K , and an average density of hydrogen atoms of about one hydrogen ato

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

$2.2508\times 10^{19} m$ meter the mean free path of hydrogen atoms in interstellar space.Explanation:

The mean free path equation is given as:

$\lambda =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}\pi d^2 n}$

Where"

d = diameter of hydrogen atom in meters

n = number of molecules per unit volume

We are given: d = 100 pm = $100\times 10^{-12}= 10^{-10} m$

$n = 1 m^{-3}$

$\lambda =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}\pi (10^{-10} m)^2\times 1 m^{-3}}$

$\lambda =2.2508\times 10^{19} m$

$2.2508\times 10^{19} m$ meter the mean free path of hydrogen atoms in interstellar space.
