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.

There is 35 mg of sodium in a can of Coke. You determine it to be 28 mg. What is your percent error?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>20 %</h2>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

P(\%) =  \frac{error}{actual \:  \: number}  \times 100\% \\

From the question

actual volume = 35 mg

error = 35 - 28 = 7

The percentage error is

P(\%) =  \frac{7}{35}  \times 100 \\  =  \frac{1}{5}  \times 100 \\  =  20

We have the final answer as

<h3>20 %</h3>

Hope this helps you

Tails of phospholipids that don't like water
densk [106]
Those tails are called hydrophobic. You can note the etymology: hydro= water, phobi = fear, aversion, dislike.

Phospholipds' tail is a long non polar chain, made of Carbon and Hydorgens, that rejects water (a polar solvent) and is attracted to non-polar compounds (oil for example).  That is why that tails can atract dirt.

Rank the following from highest to lowest priority according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system: -CH2CH3, -CHCH2, -CCH, -CH3.
mario62 [17]

Answer:

The order will be:

CCH > CHCH₂ > CH₂CH₃> CH₃

Explanation:

According to Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system we rank the groups based on the atomic number of directly attached atom with the chiral carbon.

For example: between C and H, we rank Carbon first.

If the same atoms are attached for different groups then we prioritized based on the second element with highest atomic number.

For example:

Among CH₃ and C₂H₅, the priority will be given to C₂H₅.

If an atom is double or triple bonded to the directly attached atom then each pi bond is considered to be a new atom.

Hence CH=CH₂ means, that there are two carbons attached to CH carbon.

So the order based on above selection rules will be:

CCH > CHCH₂ > CH₂CH₃> CH₃
