Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are two different types of energy-releasing reactions that occur in the nuclei of an atom.
Here are the major differences between the two:
1. To differentiate the two, fission is the splitting of an atom into two or more smaller atoms while fusion is the conjoining or fusion of two or smaller atoms into larger one.
2. Fission does not normally occur in nature while fusion occurs mostly in heavenly bodies such as the stars.
3.Fission produces highly radioactive particles that can be hazardous to both the living things and its habitat or environment while fusion is "clean energy" and "environmental friendly" meaning there are fewer radioactive particles are produced. But if a fission "trigger" is being used, there will be radioactive particles produced.
Among the two nuclear changes, fission is widely used because this reaction produces heat in nuclear reactor. This heat is used to generate steam which operates the turbines to eventually produce electricity.
when carbon dioxide gas is collected down ward of water wet gas is collected by the downward displacement of water . This is used for gases that are not very soluble in water . ... In water , carbon dioxide produces a weakly acidic solution , carbonic acid .
From the calculation, the standard free energy of the system is -359kJ.
<h3>What is the standard free-energy?</h3>
The standard free-energy is the energy present in the system. We have to first obtain the cell potential using the formula;
Ereduction - E oxidation = 0.96 V - 0.34 V = 0.62 V
Using the formula;
ΔG = -nFEcell
ΔG =-(6 * 96500 * 0.62)
ΔG =-359kJ

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Ionic salts are defined as the salts which tend to contain ionic bonds as there occurs transfer of electrons between its combining atoms.
So, when an ionic salt melts or it is dissolved in water then it will dissociate into its respective ions and as electricity is the flow of electrons or ions. Hence, this salt is then able to conduct electricity.
As covalent compounds are insoluble in water so, they do no dissociate into ions. Hence, they do not conduct electricity.
Similarly, metallic and network solids do not dissociate into ions either when melted or dissolved in water. Therefore, they also do not conduct electricity.
Thus, we can conclude that when a white crystalline salt conducts electricity when it is melted and when it dissolves in water then this bond is of ionic type.
