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.

Answer:

(a).

$order \: of \: A = 2 \\ order \: of \:B = 0 \\ rate = k[A] {}^{2} [B]$

(b)

$0.32 \times {10}^{ - 3} = k {(0.12)}^{2} (0.15) \\ k = 0.148 \: {mol}^{ - 2} {dm}^{6} {s}^{ - 1}$

(c). The rate increases because kinetic energy of reactant molecules increases.

In at least 4 complete sentences, describe the similarities and differences between Avogadro's Law and Charles' Law.

viktelen [127]

answer

Avogadro's law states that, at constant temperature and pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles present. In other words, equal volumes of gases at the same pressure and temperature contain the same number of molecules - this is true regardless of their physical properties or chemical nature.

This number of molecules is

6.022

⋅

and is known as Avogadro's number,

Matematically, Avogadro's law can be written like this

, or, better yet,

Avogadro's law, as well as Boyle's law and Charles' law, are special cases of the ideal gas law,

. If temperature and pressure are kept constant, and knowing that

is of course constant, then
