Daniel [21]3 years ago

  • The water in the pot becomes hotter as a result of heat transfer.

  • <em>Energy can be transferred from a region to another , but there will still the same overall amount of energy</em> ( energy conservation)

  • When a pot containing water  is  placed on the stove and  heat is applied with the burner, there is a flow of heat from the burner to the water.

  • Heat will be transferred from the burner to the pot, then there will be transferred of heat from the pot to the water, the molecules there in the water  will be energized as a result of the heat transfer until the boiling point  is  reached.

  • Energy transfer can take place in three form, this could be conduction, radiation or convention.

  • Convention which is a cyclical process is the one that occurs in fluids only so as a result of convection , the water at the bottom will be heated and the molecules start moving and it will rise till it get to the water at the top of the pot.

<em>Therefore, the water is heated as a result of heat transfer.</em>

Calculate the ph of a 0.60 m h2so3, solution that has the stepwise dissociation constants ka1 = 1.5 × 10-2 and 1.82 1.06 1.02 2.
Vsevolod [243]
Missing in your question Ka2 =6.3x10^-8
From this reaction:
 H2SO3 + H2O ↔ H3O+  + HSO3-
by using the ICE table :
                H2SO3     ↔    H3O     +    HSO3- 
intial         0.6                     0                  0
change     -X                      +X                +X
Equ         (0.6-X)                  X                   X

when Ka1 = [H3O+][HSO3-]/[H2SO3]
So by substitution:
1.5X10^-2 = (X*X) / (0.6-X) by solving this equation for X
∴ X = 0.088
∴[H2SO3] = 0.6 - 0.088 = 0.512
[HSO3-] = [H3O+] = 0.088

by using the ICE table 2:
                 HSO3-     ↔   H3O     +     SO3-
initial        0.088              0.088              0
change    -X                      +X                   +X
Equ         (0.088-X)          (0.088+X)          X

Ka2= [H3O+] [SO3-] / [HSO3-]
we can assume [HSO3-] =  0.088 as the value of Ka2 is very small
 6.3x10^-8 = (0.088+X)*X / 0.088
X^2 +0.088 X - 5.5x10^-9= 0 by solving this equation for X
∴X= 6.3x10^-8
∴[H3O+] = 0.088 + 6.3x10^-8
               = 0.088 m ( because X is so small)
∴PH= -㏒[H3O+]
       = -㏒ 0.088 = 1.06

From the relative rates of effusion of ²³⁵UF₆ and ²³⁸UF₆ , find the number of steps needed to produce a sample of the enriched f
Dafna11 [192]

The number of steps required to manufacture a sample of the 3.0 mole%  ²³⁵U enriched fuel used in many nuclear reactors from the relative rates of effusion of ²³⁵UF₆ and ²³⁸UF₆. ²³⁵U occurs naturally in an abundance of 0.72% are :  mining, milling, conversion, enrichment, fuel fabrication and electricity generation.

<h3>What is Uranium abundance ? </h3>
  • The majority of the 500 commercial nuclear power reactors that are currently in operation or being built across the world need their fuel to be enriched in the U-235 isotope.
  • This enrichment is done commercially using centrifuges filled with gaseous uranium.
  • A laser-excitation-based method is being developed in Australia.
  • Uranium oxide needs to be changed into a fluoride before enrichment so that it can be treated as a gas at low temperature.
  • Uranium enrichment is a delicate technology from the perspective of non-proliferation and needs to be subject to strict international regulation. The capacity for world enrichment is vastly overbuilt.

The two isotopes of uranium that are most commonly found in nature are U-235 and U-238. The 'fission' or breaking of the U-235 atoms, which releases energy in the form of heat, is how nuclear reactors generate energy. The primary fissile isotope of uranium is U-235.

The U-235 isotope makes up 0.7% of naturally occurring uranium. The U-238 isotope, which has a small direct contribution to the fission process, makes up the majority of the remaining 99.3%. (though it does so indirectly by the formation of fissile isotopes of plutonium). A physical procedure called isotope separation is used to concentrate (or "enrich") one isotope in comparison to others. The majority of reactors are light water reactors (of the PWR and BWR kinds) and need their fuel to have uranium enriched by 0.7% to 3-5% U-235.

There is some interest in increasing the level of enrichment to around 7%, and even over 20% for particular special power reactor fuels, as high-assay LEU (HALEU).

Although uranium-235 and uranium-238 are chemically identical, they have different physical characteristics, most notably mass. The U-235 atom has an atomic mass of 235 units due to its 92 protons and 143 neutrons in its nucleus. The U-238 nucleus has 146 neutrons—three more than the U-235 nucleus—in addition to its 92 protons, giving it a mass of 238 units.

The isotopes may be separated due to the mass difference between U-235 and U-238, which also makes it possible to "enrich" or raise the proportion of U-235. This slight mass difference is used, directly or indirectly, in all current and historical enrichment procedures.

Some reactors employ naturally occurring uranium as its fuel, such as the British Magnox and Canadian Candu reactors. (By contrast, to manufacture at least 90% U-235, uranium needed for nuclear bombs would need to be enriched in facilities created just for that purpose.)

Uranium oxide from the mine is first transformed into uranium hexafluoride in a separate conversion plant because enrichment operations need the metal to be in a gaseous state at a low temperature.
