B. Nuclear fission reactions are slowed down as well.

Neutron moderation is a substance which slows down neutron. In some reaction moderator is same as coolant.

This is also used to slow down nuclear fission reaction and continue chain reactions.

The collision between neutron and nuclei is more elastic and more neutrons will be slowed due to size of the neutron.

Which of the following solutes has the greatest effect on the colligative properties for a given mass of pure water? Explain.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Option a.

0.01 mol of CaCl₂ will have the greatest effect on the colligative properties, because it has the biggest i

Explanation:

To determine which of the solute is going to have a greatest effect on colligative properties we have to consider the Van't Hoff factor (i)

These are the colligative properties:

ΔP = P° . Xm . i  →  Lowering vapor pressure

ΔT = Kb . m . i  → Boiling point elevation

ΔT = Kf . m . i  →  Freezing point depression

π = M . R . T  →  Osmotic pressure

Van't Hoff factor are the numbers of ions dissolved in the solution. For nonelectrolytes, the i values 1.

CaCl₂ and KNO₃ are two ionic solutes. They dissociate as this:

CaCl₂  → Ca²⁺ + 2Cl⁻

We have 1 mol of Ca²⁺ and 2 chlorides, so 3 moles of ions → i = 3

KNO₃ → K⁺ + NO₃⁻

We have 1 mol of K⁺ and 1 mol of nitrate, so 2 moles of ions → i = 2

Option a, is the best.

Determine the energy in joules of a photon whose frequency is 3.55 x10^17 hz
zaharov [31]
The equation for energy of a photon is E=hv where v equals frequency and h equals the Planck constant (6.626X10^-34). So since you've been given frequency you can just plug in frequency to find the total energy in joules.

E=(3.55X10^17)(6.626X10^-34)
E=2.35223X10^-16

Not sure how many significant figures you needed. Hope this helped.

What is a polyprotic buffer?
coldgirl [10]
Buffers - mixtures of conjugate acid and conjugate base at ±1 pH unit from pH = pKa. Resistant to changes in pH in response to small additions of H+ or OH-. ... Polyprotic acids - dissociation of each H+ can be treated separately if the pKa values are different

A container holds 6.4 moles of gas. Hydrogen gas makes up 25% of the total moles in the container. If the total pressure is 1.24
Degger [83]
  The   partial  pressure of hydrogen is 0.31  atm

calculation

find the number of  hydrogen   moles the container, that is

25/100  x 6.4  =1.6 moles of hydrogen

find the  partial pressure for hydrogen  in 1.6 moles

that is   6.4  moles=  1.24 atm
            1.6  moles= ?

by  cross  multiplication

1.6moles  x1.24  atm/ 6.4 moles=  0.31 atm
