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

Consider two gases, A and B, are in a container at room temperature.
suter [353]
The rate of reaction would increase because as pressure increases the molecules are more likely to bump into each other leading to a more likely hood of the molecules colliding properly to react leading to an increase in the reaction rate of the substance.

An interplanetary probe returns to Earth with soil samples. The atoms in the sample are sorted by their number of protons. A new
Leya [2.2K]

Answer is: the average atomic mass is 232.

ω₁ = 20% ÷ 100%.

ω₁ = 0.20.

ω₂ = 80% ÷ 100%.

ω₂ = 0.80.

Ar₁ = 120 (number of protons) + 120 (number of neutrons).

Ar₁ = 240.

Ar₂ = 120 + 110 .

Ar₂ = 230.

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium =  

Ar₁ · ω₁ + Ar₂ · ω₂.  

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium =  240 · 0.2 + 230 · 0.8.  

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium = 48 + 184.  

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium = 232.
