Answer:

in nuclear fission, an unstable atom splits into 2 or more smaller pieces that are more stable and releases energy in the process. the fission process also releases extra neutrons which can split additional atoms, resulting in a chain reaction that releases a lot of energy

Define shielding and effective nuclear charge. What is the connection between the two?
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The relation between the shielding and effective nuclear charge is given as

Z_{eff} = Z -S

where s denote shielding

z_{eff} denote effective nuclear charge

Z - atomic number

Explanation:

shielding is referred to as the repulsion of an outermost electron to the pull of electron from valence shell.  Higher the electron in valence shell higher will be the shielding effects.  

Effective nuclear charge is the amount of net positive charge that valence electron has.

The relation between the shielding and the effective nuclear charge is given as  

Z_{eff} = Z -S

wheres denote shielding

z_{eff} denote effective nuclear charge  

Z - atomic number

An ore is to be analyzed for its iron content by an oxidation-reduction titration with permanganate ion. A 4.230 g sample of the
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The balanced redox reaction equation is;

8H+ + MnO4^- + 5Fe2+ ---------> Mn2+ + 5Fe3+ + 4H2O

Amount of KMnO4 reacted = 31.60/1000 * 0.05120 = 1.62 * 10^-3 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of MnO4^- reacted with 5 moles of Fe2+

1.62 * 10^-3 moles will react with 1.62 * 10^-3 moles * 5/1 = 8.1 * 10^-3 moles

Mass of Fe2+ reacted = 8.1 * 10^-3 moles  *  56 g/mol

Mass of Fe2+ reacted = 0.45 g

Amount of iron in the sample =  0.45 g

Percentage of iron in the sample;

0.45 g/4.230 g  * 100 = 10.6 %

Alona [7]

Question 1:

(a) Sulfurous acid: H2SO3

Sulfuric acid: H2SO4

(b) Nitrous acid: H2NO2

Nitric acid: H2NO3

Question 2:

To calculate the pH, based on concentration of H+ ions, there is one formula:

ph =   - log_{10}(c(h + ))

So the pH of this solution is

-  log_{10}( {10}^{ - 9} )  = 9

(the solution is basic).
