This is a neutron induced fission, therefore a neutron will be added to the U²³⁵ to cause the reaction, and thus it will be added to the left side. There will be unknown number of neutrons produced and thus we put this on the right hand side.
n₁ + U²³⁵ = Te¹³⁷ + Zr ⁹⁷ + xn1 ( n1 to mean a neutron of mass 1)
To balance the masses on both sides of the equation;
1 + 235 = 137 +97+ x
x = 2
the end reaction will be
n₁ +U²³⁵ = Te¹³⁷ + Zr⁹⁷ + 2 n₁
B. Bleach and sea water should be identified as bases
Explanation:
- The pH scale measures the acidic or basic nature of a substance.
- Ranges from 0 to 14.
- If pH is lower than 7 → the solution is an acid.
- If pH is more than 7 → the solution is an basic or alkaline.
- If a pH is a 7 it is neutral.
In the given question, the pH scale measures for bleach is 8 and for sea water it is 13. So, bleach is basic, not neutral and Sea water is basic too instead of acid. So, Bleach and sea water should be identified as bases.
Answer:
THE MOLARITY IS 2.22 MOL/DM3
Explanation:
The solution formed was as a result of dissolving 37.5 g of Na2S in 217 g of water
Relative molecular mass of Na2S = ( 23* 2 + 32) = 78 g/mol
Molarity in g/dm3 is the amount of the substance dissolved in 1000 g or 1 L of the solvent. So we have;
37.5 g of Na2S = 217 g of water
( 37.5 * 1000 / 217 ) g = 1000 g of water
So, 172.81 g/dm3 of the solution
So therefore, molarity in mol/dm3 = mol in g/dm3 / molar mass
Molarity = 172.81 g/dm3 / 78 g/mol
Molarity = 2.22 mol/dm3
The molarity of the solution is 2.22 mol/dm3
