How does a nuclear reactor produce electricity?

Chemistry
1 answer:
aleksley [76]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Nuclear reactors are the heart of a nuclear power plant. They contain and control nuclear chain reactions that produce heat through a physical process called fission. That heat is used to make steam that spins a turbine to create electricity

Determine the expected diffraction angle for the first-order diffraction from the (111) set of planes for FCC nickel (Ni) when m
faust18 [17]

Answer:

56°

Explanation:

First calculate a:

a=2 R \sqrt{2}=2(0.1246) \sqrt{2}=0.352 \mathrm{nm}

The interplanar spacing can be calculated from:

d_{111}=\frac{a}{\sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}+1^{2}}}=\frac{0.352}{\sqrt{3}}=0.203 \mathrm{nm}

The diffraction angle is determined from:

\sin \theta=\frac{n \lambda}{2 d_{111}}=\frac{1(0.1927)}{2(0.2035)}=0.476

Solve for \theta

\theta=\sin ^{-1}(0.476)=28^{\circ}

The diffraction angle is:

2 \theta=2\left(28^{\circ}\right)=56^{\circ}

2C4 H10 + 13O2 -→ 8CO2 + 10H2O If 356 moles of O2 are available to react, how many moles of CO2 will fom?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Answer:

The mole ratio of C₄H₁₀ and CO₂ is 2 : 8, which  simplifies to 1 : 4.

Explanation:

The mole ratio is the relative proportion of the moles of products or reactants that participate in the reaction according to the chemical equation.

The chemical equation given is:

2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ → 8CO₂ + 10H₂O

Once you check that the equation is balanced, you can set the mole ratios for all the reactants and products. The coefficients used in front of each reactant and product, in the balanced chemical equation, tells the mole ratios.

In this case, they are: 2 mol C₄H₁₀ :  13 mol O₂ : 8 mol CO₂ : 10 mol H₂O

Since you are asked about the mole ratio of C₄H₁₀ and CO₂ it is:

2 mol C₄H₁₀ : 8 mol CO₂ , which dividing by 2, simplifies to

1 mol C₄H₁₀ : 4 mol CO₂, or

1 : 2.

EASY AS PIE AND I LIKE PIE

Calcium iodide (CaI2) is an ionic bond, which means that electrons are transferred.  In order for Ca to become the ion Ca2+, the calcium atom must lose 2 electrons. (Electrons have a negative charge, so when an atom loses 2 electrons, its ion becomes more positive.)  In order for I to become the ion I1−, the iodine atom must gain 1 electron. (When an atom gains an electron, its ion will be more negative.)  However, the formula for calcium iodide is CaI2 - there are 2 iodine ions present. This makes sense because the iodine ion has a charge of -1, so two iodine ions have to be present to cancel out the +2 charge of the calcium ion.  Therefore, the calcium atom transfers 2 valence electrons, one to each iodine atom, to form the ionic bond.

What do you use to determine molar mass?
levacccp [35]

Answer:

the molar mass of any element can be determined by finding the atomic mass of the element on the periodic table for example, if the atomic mass of sulfer is 32.066 amu, then it's molar mass is 32.066 g / mol
