Answer:

Explanation:

What occurred then is as a result of nuclear fission. This occurs as the Uranium-235 split into two smaller nuclei while releasing high energy neutrons. These neutrons bombard existing U-235 in the atmosphere and this reaction continue in a spontaneous manner until a chain reaction is formed of U-235, whose fall out fills the environment. This process was what led to people been exposed to high intensity radiation in the days and months after the atomic bomb was dropped.

Since the number of atoms in a substance is so large , a unit to count them was created. This unit is the number of atoms in 12
larisa86 [58]

The number of atoms in one mole of any substance is measured by Avogadro's number. The value of Avogadro's number is 6.023 x 10 ^23. It is named after scientist Avogadro who proposed this number. 12 grams of carbon-12 represents 1 mole of carbon-12. For this reason, the number of atoms present in 1 mole of any substance is 6.023 x 10 ^23. Therefore, the number of atoms present in 1 mole carbon-12 is 6.023 x 10^23.


(Answer) This unit is the number of atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12 and known as Avogadro's number.

A gas at constant temperature has a pressure of 404.6 kPa with a volume of 12 ml. If the volume changes to 43ml, what is the new
blagie [28]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>112.912 kPa</h2>

Explanation:

The new pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the new pressure

P_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2}  \\

404.6 kPa = 404600 Pa

From the question we have

P_2 =  \frac{404600 \times 12}{43}  =  \frac{4855200}{43}  \\  = 112911.6279... \\  = 112912

We have the final answer as

<h3>112.912 kPa</h3>

Hope this helps you
