<span>Nuclear fission is either a nuclear reaction or radio active decay process in which nucleus (the center) of an atom splits into smaller parts called nuclei. This is an extremely exothermic reaction (i.e a reaction which produces heat) resulting into release of massive amount of energy in the form of heat and sometimes light. The reaction produces much more energy as compared to a similar mass of a conventional fuel, such as Petrol/Kerosene/Petroleum Gas etc. This makes Nuclear fission an extremely dense and at times very destructive source of energy. Some common elements capable of Nuclear fission are Uranium, Plutonium etc. Though in modern days Nuclear Fission are finding application in being a source of energy (such as a Nuclear power plant), but they are also used in destructive format as Nuclear Bombs and it's one of the top most imminent threats to the existence of humanity in future (in the event of a Nuclear war).</span>
The energy change if 84.0 g of CaO react with excess water is 98KJ of heat is released.
calculation
heat = number of moles x delta H
delta H = - 65.2 Kj/mol
first find the number of moles of CaO reacted
moles = mass/molar mass
the molar mass of CaO = 40 + 16= 56 g/mol
mass = 84 g
moles therefore = 84 g/56 g/mol =1.5 moles
Heat is therefore = 1.5 moles x -65.2 = - 97.8 Kj = -98 Kj
since sign is negative the energy is released
Answer:
Helum (He)g will escape faster
Explanation:
the phenomemenon can be explained by the Graham's law of diffusion.
Graham's law of difussion states that the rate of difussion is inversely proportional to the square root of the molecular mass,which means the gas with lower molecular mass will escape faster.
Helium gas has a molecular mass of 4 while Neon has a molecular mass of 10.
rate of diffusion of He/rate of difussion of Ne=√4/10=√0.4=0.63
It means He(g) will move 0.63 times faster than Ne(g) under the same condition
