If one neutron initiates a fission event that produces two neutrons in the products, how many new reactions can now be initiated

? 9 If each of the neutrons produced in the first fission event then initiates a fission event that produces one neutron in the products, how many new reactions can now be initiated by each neutron? How many neutrons in total were produced by the two fission events described?

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

A fission reaction is a chain reaction. The neutrons that are produced in one reaction leads to further chain reaction in the system.

If one neutron initiates fission that leads to the production of two other neutrons,two more new reactions are initiated.

If these reactions each produce one neutron, then another two new reactions are initiated. This makes a total of four new reactions from the two fission events described.

A total of four neutrons is produced from the two fission events.

List a few of the physical properties of buckyball
stepladder [879]

Buckyball or buckminster fullerene is the third allotrope of carbon. It contains 60 carbons which are arranged in the five and six membered rings. Buckyball is the cluster of carbon atoms which are arranged in spherical shape and it forms a hollow cage.

The physical properties are:

Buckyball is made up of huge number of molecules but giant covalent bond is not exist.

The forces between the individual buckyballs are weak intermolecular forces.

The substances which are made up of buckyballs has low melting point in comparison to other allotropes of carbon as low energy is required to overcome theses intermolecular forces.

The substances which are made up of buckyballs is slippery in nature.

The solutions of buckminster fullerene are deep purple in color and upon evaporation brown residue is obtained.

Buckyball is soft in comparison to graphite and when it is compressed to less than 70 percent of its volume then, it converts into superhard form of diamond.

Calculate the molarity of a solution with 114.95 grams of sodium dissolved in 2 L of water. ​
koban [17]

Answer:

The molarity of a solution is 2.5 M

Explanation:

Molarity is a concentration unit that describes how much of a solution is dissolved in solution.

Molarity of a solution can found by using the formula,

Molarity (M) = (moles of solute)/(Liters of Solution).

Given, mass of Sodium = 114.95 grams.

Volume of water = 2 L.

Here, Sodium is solute as it is dissolved in water, which is the solvent.

Moles of Sodium(solute) can be found by using the formula,

Number of Moles = mass/Molecular weight.

mass of Sodium = 114.95 grams.

Molecular weight = 22.989 grams

Number of Moles of Sodium(solute) =114.95/22.989 = 5.

Substituting the values in the formula, we get,

M = 5/2 = 2.5 M
