Explain why uranium must be enriched to be used in a nuclear power plant.

Chemistry
1 answer:
galben [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The nuclear fuel used in a nuclear reactor needs to have a higher concentration of the U 235 isotope than that which exists in natural uranium ore. U235 when concentrated (or "enriched") is fissionable in light-water reactors (the most common reactor design in the USA).

What is the relationship between the amount of carbon dioxide and the earths average temperature?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

carbon dioxide concentration goes down, temperature goes down. Carbon dioxide goes up temp goes up, carbon dioxide is directly related to temperature by insulating it in the earths atmosphere and if there's less of it then the temp would go down.

some inkjet printers produce picoliter-sized drops. how many water molecules are there in one picoliter of water? the density of
GrogVix [38]

3.37 x 10¹⁰ molecules

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of water = 1pL = 1 x 10⁻¹²L

Density of water = 1.00g/mL = 1000g/L

Unknown:

Number of water molecules = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we first find the mass of the water molecule in the inkjet.

       Mass of water = density of water x volume of water

Then, the number of molecules can be determined using the expression below:

        number of moles = \frac{mass of water}{molar mass of water}

 Number of molecules = number of moles x 6.02 x 10²³

Solving:

Mass of water = 1 x 10⁻¹² x 1000 = 1 x 10⁻⁹g

Number of moles:

Molar mass of H₂O = 2 + 16 = 18g/mol

Number of moles = \frac{1 x 10^{-12} }{18} = 5.6 x 10⁻¹⁴moles

Number of molecules =  5.6 x 10⁻¹⁴   x   6.02 x 10²³ = 33.7 x 10⁹

                                     = 3.37 x 10¹⁰ molecules

Hoochie [10]

The compound : C₄₀H₄₄N₄O

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound =mole ratio of the components

The principle of determining empirical formula

• Determine the mass ratio of the constituent elements of the compound.  

• Determine the mole ratio by dividing the percentage by the atomic mass

The mol ratio of composition : C : H : N : O

\tt \dfrac{80.66}{12}\div \dfrac{7.39}{1}\div \dfrac{9.39}{14}\div \dfrac{2.68}{16}\\\\6.722\div 7.39\div 0.671\div 0.1675\rightarrow divide~by~smallest(0.1675)\\\\40\div 44\div 4\div 1
