Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The shorthand nuclear reaction equations have been given; the first particle in the parentheses is a reactant particle while the second particle is a product particle. These can now be rewritten as the longhand equations as follows;
238/92U + 4/2 He -------> 241/94Pu + 1/0 n
238/92U + 4/2 He ------> 241/94Pu + 1/0 n
14/7N + 4/2 He------> 17/8O + 1/1 p
56/26Fe + 2 4/2 He----> 60/29Cu + 4/2 He
Answer:
C
Explanation:
If the enthalpy change (i.e. Δ<em>H</em>) of a reaction is negative, then the reaction releases heat and is hence exothermic.
Hence, our answer is C.
Conversely, if Δ<em>H</em> is positive, the reaction absorbs heat and is endothermic.
Δ<em>H</em> tells us nothing about the speed of the reaction.
While Δ<em>H</em> influences free-energy change (Δ<em>G</em> = Δ<em>H</em> - <em>T</em>Δ<em>S</em>), we cannot predict the sign of Δ<em>G</em> given only Δ<em>H </em>(recall that a reaction is spontaneous if Δ<em>G</em> < 0).
The atomic number tells you the number of electrons. That means there are 18 electrons in an argon atom.
Answer:
The ranking order of the degree of polarity is HF>HCl>HBr>HI
Explanation:
The degree of polarity of a compound depends on the nature electronegative atom that it contains.
Among Fluorine,chlorine,bromine and iodine the electronegativity of fluorine is highest among all the mentioned atoms.
Due to high electronegativity HF is the most polar than HCl,HBr and HI and the HI have least polarity as its atomic structure is large and electronegativity is lower than fluorine,chlorine and bromine.
