The radioactivity of U-235 is of low intensity. Why then were the people of Hiroshima exposed to high intensity radiation in the

days and months after the atomic bomb was dropped?
Chemistry

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.

Chemistry an atom of strontium has at least four different isotopes. what is different between an isotope of 86sr and an isotope
lions [1.4K]
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons.

Remember that all the atoms of an element have the same number of protons. So the only difference between isotopes of an element is the number of neutrons.

86 Sr means that the mass number of this isotope is 86. Also, remember that the mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons.

87 Sr means that the mass number of this isotope is 87.

So, 86 Sr and 87 Sr differ 1 neutron.

Answer: 1 neutron

Will mark brainliest :) how many moles of a solute is present in 4.00 L of an 8.30 M solution?
andreev551 [17]

The answer is 33.2 moles of a solute is present in 4.00 L of an 8.30 M solution , Option A is correct .

<h3>What is Molarity ?</h3>

Molarity is defined as the amount of solute (in moles)in per litre of solution.

It is also known as molar concentration of a solution , It is expressed in mol/l

\rm M =\dfrac{moles \;of\; solute}{Volume \;of \;solution} \\\\\\\rm M = \dfrac{n}{V} \\

We can rearrange this equation to get the number of moles:

n= M * V

The molarity of solution is 8.3 M and the volume given is 4 litres

the moles will be n = 8.30 * 4 = 33.2 moles

Therefore 33.2 moles of a solute is present in 4.00 L of an 8.30 M solution , Option A is correct .

Assign an oxidation number to each atom in the products.
Rzqust [24]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Oxidation number refers to a number given to an atom which shows the number of number of electrons lost (or gained, if the number is negative), by an atom of that element in the compound.

Hence oxidation number of following atoms in given reaction are:

In NaOH:

Na = +1

O = -2

H = +1

In H2:

H = 0
