Answer:

X represents barium - 141 nucleus.

Written as: (141, 56) Ba

Explanation:

In nuclear fission reaction, due to the fact that the process produces more neutrons, a nuclear chain reaction can possibly occurr. Now, a chain reaction is a one whereby the material that begins the reaction will also be one of the products and it can start another reaction.

Now, for the nuclear chain reaction for the fission of uranium-235, its nucleus absorbs a neutron after which it splits into a krypton - 92 nucleus and a barium - 141 nucleus. Thereafter it releases three more neutrons.

Thus, X is the image represents barium - 141 nucleus.

(141,56) Ba

T/F. When a molecule contains three bonds and a single lone pair attached to the central atom, the molecular geometry is trigona
lesantik [10]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In chemistry, trigonal planar is a molecular geometry model with one atom at the center and three atoms at the corners of an equilateral triangle, called peripheral atoms, all in one plane. In an ideal trigonal planar species, all three ligands are identical and all bond angles are 120°.

Meaning there shouldn't be any lone pair.

Look up "Structure of a trigonal planar molecule" for a visual

So it is false.

Complete the equation for the reaction of sulfuric acid and sugar (sucrose). C12H22O11 + 11 H2SO4 ? 12 + 11 H2SO4 + 11
serg [7]

Answer :

The complete equation for the reaction of sulfuric acid and sugar is,

C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}+11 H_2SO_4\rightarrow 12C+11H_2SO_4+11H_2O

By the stoichiometry of the reaction,

1 mole of sucrose react with the 11 moles of sulfuric acid to give 12 moles of carbon and 11 moles of water.

In this reaction, sulfuric acid react with sucrose (sugar). It dehydrates the sugar molecules which means it eliminates the water.
