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.

b) Si los ácidos nitroso y fluorhídrico están descritos como electrolitos débiles, ¿significa que en la disolución hay moléculas
viva [34]

Los electrolitos son sustancias que se disocian en agua para dar iones.

Generalmente en química, podemos clasificar sustancias como

  • Electrolitos
  • No electrolitos

Los electrolitos pueden disociarse en solución para producir iones, pero un no electrolito no puede hacer eso.

Entre los electrolitos hay dos clases;

  • Electrolitos fuertes
  • Electrolitos débiles

Los electrolitos fuertes se disocian completamente en solución, mientras que los electrolitos débiles no se disocian completamente en solución.

El hecho de que los electrolitos débiles no se disocien por completo significa que algunas moléculas de la sustancia no se disocian.

Por lo tanto, si los ácidos nitroso y fluorhídrico se describen como electrolitos débiles, esto significa que hay moléculas en la solución que no están disociadas.

Assuming equal concentrations and complete dissociation, rank these aqueous solutions by their freezing points. nh4cl cobr3 k2so
Illusion [34]
Answer: CoBr3 < K2SO4 < NH4 Cl

Justification:

1) The depression of the freezing point of a solution is a colligative property, which means that it depends on the number of particles of solute dissolved.

2) The formula for the depression of freezing point is:

ΔTf = i * Kf * m

Where i is the van't Hoof factor which accounts for the dissociation of the solute.

Kf is the freezing molal constant and only depends on the solvent

m is the molality (molal concentration).

3) Since, you are assuming equal concentrations and complete dissociation of the given solutes, the solute with more ions in the molecular formula will result  in the solution with higher depression of the freezing point (lower freezing point).

4) These are the dissociations of the given solutes:

a) NH4 Cl (s) --> NH4(+)(aq) + Cl(-) (aq) => 1 mol --> 2 moles

b) Co Br3 (s) --> Co(3+) (aq) + 3Br(-)(aq) => 1 mol --> 4 moles

c) K2SO4 (s) --> 2K(+) (aq) + SO4 (2-) (aq) => 1 mol --> 3 moles

5) So, the rank of solutions by their freezing points is:

CoBr3 < K2SO4 < NH4 Cl
