Answer:

Explanation: In the previous section we listed four characteristics of radioactivity and nuclear decay that form the basis for the use of radioisotopes in the health and biological sciences. A fifth characteristic of nuclear reactions is that they release enormous amounts of energy. The first nuclear reactor to achieve controlled nuclear disintegration was built in the early 1940s by Enrico Fermi and his colleagues at the University of Chicago. Since that time, a great deal of effort and expense has gone into developing nuclear reactors as a source of energy. The nuclear reactions presently used or studied by the nuclear power industry fall into two categories: fission reactions and fusion reactions

A and b are two gases that are mixed together: 2.50 mol a is mixed with 0.850 mol b. if the final pressure of the mixture is 1.7
USPshnik [31]

Partial pressure of gas A is 1.31 atm and that of gas B is 0.44 atm.

The partial pressure of a gas in a mixture can be calculated as

Pi = Xi x P

Where Pi is the partial pressure; Xi is mole fraction and P is the total pressure of the mixture.

Therefore we have Pa = Xa x P and Pb = Xb x P

Let us find Xa and Xb

Χa = mol a/ total moles = 2.50/(2.50+0.85) = 2.50/3.35 = 0.746

Xb = mol b/total moles = 0.85/(2.50+0.85) = 0.85/3.35 = 0.254

Total pressure P is given as 1.75 atm

Pa = Xa x P = 0.746 x 1.75 = 1.31atm

Partial pressure of gas A is 1.31 atm

Pb = Xb x P = 0.254 x 1.75 = 0.44atm

Partial pressure of gas B is 0.44 atm.

In a fluorine atom, on which energy level are the valence electrons found?
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

second energy level

Explanation:

Valence electrons are those electrons which are present in outer most orbital of the atom.

This can be easily found through the electronic configuration of atom.

Electronic configuration of F:

F₉ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁵

We can see that the valence electrons are present in second energy level of F atom.

There are seven valence electrons of fluorine.

It is called halogens.

Halogens are very reactive these elements can not be found free in nature. Their boiling points also increases down the group which changes their physical states. i.e fluorine is gas while iodine is solid.

Fluorine:

1. it is yellow in color.

2. it is flammable gas.

3. it is highly corrosive.

4. fluorine has pungent smell.

5. its reactions with all other elements are very vigorous except neon, oxygen, krypton and helium.

Calculate the change in entropy if Br2(l) is converted to Br2(g).
Alik [6]

Ans: The entropy change for the given reaction is 93.3 J/K

Given reaction:

Br2(l) → Br2(g)

ΔS = ∑n(products)S⁰(products) - ∑n(reactants)S⁰(reactants)

     = 1 mole* S°(Br2(g)) - 1 mole*S°(Br2(l))

     =  1 mole *245.5 J/mol-K - 1 mole*152.2 J/mol-K

     = 93.3 J/K
