What is a way in which nuclear fusion is used?

1 answer:

3 0

Answer:It is a nuclear process, where energy is produced by smashing together light atoms. It is the opposite reaction of fission, where heavy isotopes are split apart.

Explanation Fusion is the process by which the sun and other stars generate light and heat.

It’s most easily achieved on Earth by combining two isotopes of hydrogen: deuterium and tritium. Hydrogen is the lightest of all the elements, being made up of a single proton and a electron. Deuterium has an extra neutron in its nucleus; it can replace one of the hydrogen atoms in H20 to make what is called “heavy water.”

Sodium metal is sometimes used as a cooling agent in heat exchange units because of its relatively high molar heat capacity of 2

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The specific heat of sodium is 1,23J/g°C

Explanation:

Using the atomic weight of sodium (23g/mol) and the atomic weight definition, we have that each mole of the substance has 23 grams of sodium.

starting from this, we use the atomic weight of sodium to convert the units from J / mol ° C to J / g ° C

$28,2 \frac{J}{mol C} x \frac{1mol}{23g} = 1,23 J/g C$

Given the following data:N2(g) + O2(g)→ 2NO(g), ΔH=+180.7kJ2NO(g) + O2(g)→ 2NO2(g), ΔH=−113.1kJ2N2O(g) → 2N2(g) + O2(g), ΔH=−163

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

ΔH = +155.6 kJ

Explanation:

The Hess' Law states that the enthalpy of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy of the step reactions. To do the addition of the reaction, we first must reorganize them, to disappear with the intermediaries (substances that are not presented in the overall reaction).

If the reaction is inverted, the signal of the enthalpy changes, and if its multiplied by a constant, the enthalpy must be multiplied by the same constant. Thus:

N₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO(g) ΔH = +180.7 kJ

2NO(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO₂(g) ΔH = -113.1 kJ

2N₂O(g) → 2N₂(g) + O₂(g) ΔH = -163.2 kJ

The intermediares are N₂ and O₂, thus, reorganizing the reactions:

N₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO(g) ΔH = +180.7 kJ

NO₂(g) → NO(g) + (1/2)O₂(g) ΔH = +56.55 kJ (inverted and multiplied by 1/2)

N₂O(g) → N₂(g) + (1/2)O₂(g) ΔH = -81.6 kJ (multiplied by 1/2)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

N₂O(g) + NO₂(g) → 3NO(g)

ΔH = +180.7 + 56.55 - 81.6

ΔH = +155.6 kJ
