The mechanics of a power plant that generally uses nuclear energy in order to generate electricity lies in the principle of nuclear fission between radioactive atoms. In addition, among its major arguments on why it is still a matter of ethical issue is because of the intensive maintenance it requires for the disposal of its radioactive wastes.

CAN SOMEONE REWRITE/SHORTEN THIS FOR ME PLEASE? I'LL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Answer:

Here you go! 50% of your writing piece

Explanation:

Foods produced from or using GM organisms are often referred to as GM foods.

GM foods are developed and marketed because there is some advantage either to the producer or consumer of these GM foods. GM seed developers wanted their products to be accepted by producers and have concentrated on innovations that bring direct benefit to farmers and generally the food industry.

One objective for developing plants based on GM organisms is to improve crop protection. The GM crops currently on the market are mainly aimed at an increased level of crop protection through the introduction of resistance against plant diseases caused by insects or viruses or through increased tolerance towards herbicides.

Resistance against insects is achieved by incorporating into the food plant the gene for toxin production from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. GM crops that inherently produce this toxin have been shown to require lower quantities of insecticides in specific situations, where pest pressure is high.

Hiii pls help me to write out the ionic equation ​
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

<u>STEP I</u>

This is the balanced equation for the given reaction:-

2KOH_{(aq)} + H_2SO_4{}_{(aq)}   \rightarrow K_2SO_4{}_{(aq)} + 2H_2O_{(l)}

<u>STEP II</u>

The compounds marked with (aq) are soluble ionic compounds. They must be

broken into their respective ions.

see, in the equation KOH, H2SO4, and K2SO4 are marked with (aq).

On breaking them into their respective ions :-

  • 2KOH -> 2K+ + 2OH-
  • H2SO4 -> 2H+ + (SO4)2-
  • K2SO4 -> 2K+ + (SO4)2-

<u>STEP III</u>

Rewriting these in the form of equation

\underline{\pmb{2K^+} }+ 2OH^- + 2H^+ + \pmb{\underline{{SO_4{}^{2-}}} \: \rightarrow \:  \underline{\pmb{2K^+}}} + \underline{\pmb{SO_4{}^{2-}}} + 2H_2O

<u>STEP </u><u>IV</u>

Canceling spectator ions, the ions that appear the same on either side of the equation

<em>(note: in the above step the ions in bold have gotten canceled.)</em>

\boxed{ \mathfrak{ \red{ 2OH^-{}_{(aq)} + 2H^+{(aq.)} \rightarrow H_2O{}_{(l)}}}}

This is the net ionic equation.

____________________________

\\

\mathfrak{\underline{\green{ Why\: KOH \:has\:  been\: taken\: as\: aqueous ?}}}

  • KOH has been taken as aqueous because the question informs us that we have a solution of KOH. by solution it means that KOH has been dissolved in water before use.

[Alkali metal hydroxides are the only halides soluble in water ]
