What are the basics of chemistry

Novay_Z [31]

In studying chemistry, one should learn how to read the periodic table and periodic trends in the table.. Of course, you should also know the abbreviations of each element in it so that you can identify what element is in chemical structures. Memorizing and knowing it by heart is the best way. You should also study what we call chemical nomenclature which is naming combinations of elements. Elements when combined may form ionic compounds, bonds or acids. Knowing what element reacts with another will also be necessary that's why the concept of chemical reactions must be further studied.

Which equation demonstrates that nuclear fusion forms elements that are heavier than helium

GrogVix [38]

Answer: The correct option is 2.

Explanation: There are two types of nuclear reactions:

1) Nuclear fission: These reactions are defined as the reactions in which a heavier unstable nuclei breaks into two or more smaller stable nuclei.

2) Nuclear fusion: These reactions are the ones where two smaller nuclei fuse together or combine together to form a larger nuclei.

In the question, we need to find the fusion reaction which forms elements heavier than helium.

Option 1: In this fusion reaction occurs but the nuclei is Helium itself.

Option 2: In this also fusion reaction occurs and the nuclei is heavier than Helium which is Neon.

$_8^{16}\textrm{O}+_2^4\textrm{He}\rightarrow _{10}^{20}\textrm{Ne}$

Option 3 and Option 4: These two reactions are nuclear fission reactions of Uranium-235 because one heavier element is breaking into more than 2 products.

Hence, the correct option is 2.

Why are nanowhiskers used to repel stains on fabrics??

WINSTONCH [101]

Nanowhiskers or cellulose nanofibers are nano-structured cellulose produced by bacteria. They have relatively high crystallinity and ability to form a dense network held together by inter-fibrillar bonds that has the tendency to act as a barrier through their film-forming properties to which they can repel stains on fabric.

What volume (in mL) of a 0.200 MHNO3 solution is required to completely react with 27.6 mL of a 0.100 MNa2CO3 solution according

ladessa [460]

Answer:

There is 27.6 mL of a 0.200 M HNO3 solution required

Explanation:

Step 1: The balanced equation is:

Na2CO3(aq)+2HNO3(aq)→2NaNO3(aq)+CO2(g)+H2O(l)

This means for 1 mole Na2CO3 consumed, there is consumed 2 mole of HNO3 and there is produced 2 moles of NaNO3, 1 mole of CO2 and 1 mole of H2O

Step 2: Calculating moles of Na2CO3

moles of Na2CO3 =volume of Na2CO3 * Molarity of Na2CO3

moles of Na2CO3 = 27.6 *10^-3 * 0.1 M = 0.00276 moles

Step 3: Calculating moles of HNO3

In the balanced equation, we can see that for 1 mole of Na2CO3 consumed, there are consumed 2 moles of HNO3.

So for 0.00276 moles consumed of Na2CO3, there are consumed 0.00552 moles of HNO3.

This means 0.00276 moles of the base Na2CO3 would react with 0.00552 moles of the acid HNO3

Step 4: Calculating the volume of HNO3

volume of HNO3 = moles of HNO3 / Molarity of HNO3

volume of HNO3 = 0.00552 moles / 0.200 M = 0.0276 L

0.0276 L = 27.6 ml

There is 27.6 mL of a 0.200 M HNO3 solution required
