What changes occur in the nuclei of atoms involved in the reactions that fuel nuclear power plants?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The nucleus splits into two or more lighter nuclei, releasing kinetic energy, gamma radiation, and free neutrons. A portion of these neutrons may later be absorbed by other fissile atoms and trigger further fission events, which release more neutrons, and so on. This is known as a nuclear chain reaction.

Answer:

La respuesta está en el enunciado

Explanation:

Una solución química es definida como una mezcla de dos o más sustancias donde, la que está en mayor proporción, es definida como el solvente y los componentes que están en menor cantidad se definen como los solutos.

En general, en la formulación de bebidas, el solvente es agua, los solutos son otros componentes como saborizantes y colorantes que permiten que el consumidor tenga experiencias agradables con la bebida.

Además, la solución debe ser homogenea, esto es, todos los solutos se encuentran completamente disueltos en el solvente. Una bebida comercial a la que se le encuentren partículas no genera confianza y puede ser rechazada por parte del consumidos.

how is water treated for human use​

Answers

Coagulation and flocculation are often the first steps in water treatment. Chemicals with a positive charge are added to the water. The positive charge of these chemicals neutralizes the negative charge of dirt and other dissolved particles in the water.

These include: (1) Collection ; (2) Screening and Straining ; (3) Chemical Addition ; (4) Coagulation and Flocculation ; (5) Sedimentation and Clarification ; (6) Filtration ; (7) Disinfection ; (8) Storage ; (9) and finally Distribution. Let's examine these steps in more detail.

Answer:

the water is first screened then filtered to remove undesolvable objects then passed into the sedimentation tank which is again filtered after leaving the tank. Chlorine is then added to the fine filtered water to kill viruses and bacteria. now the water is clean hope i ave help u enough

Find the H+ concentration of of a solution that has a pH solution of 12.24

Answers

Answer:

[H⁺] = 5.754 x 10^-13 M

Explanation:

Since pH is the negative log of the hydronium concentration, we can solve for hydronium concentration and then plug in our given pH:

pH = -log[H⁺]

-pH = log[H⁺]

10^-pH = [H⁺]

Let's plug in our pH:

[H⁺] = 10^-pH = 10^-12.24 = 5.754 x 10^-13 M

It is the year 2032, and a new planet (Planet Y) is discovered. An astronaut with a mass of 79.00 kg visits the new planet. It is discovered that his weight on the new planet is 740.8 lbs. What is the estimate of the g force on the planet and would the astronaut be heavier on Planet Y or on Earth? (Earth has a g force of 9.81 m/s2 ).

Answers

Answer:

“Newton’s Law of Gravity” gives the gravity force between two objects with masses m

and M separated by distance r:



F  G

m M

r

2

G is called the Gravitational Constant, and has the value



6.671011N m

2

kg2

(N is for

Newton, the physicists’ unit of force) or



1.51011 lbm

2

kg2

.

Let’s go back to the example given in the text: two 150 lb people separated by 1 meter.

The mass of each person is



150lb

2.2

lb

kg

 68kg

. Putting these into the formula gives



F 1.5101 1 lb m

2

kg2

(68kg)

2

(1m)

2

107

lb.

Newton’s Law of Gravity actually gives the force only between two small objects. If one

of the objects is a sphere (such as the Earth) then it turns out that you can still use the

formula, but you must use the distance to the center of the sphere as the value for r. As

an example, let’s put in numbers for a 1 kg object sitting on the surface of the Earth.

Then the force of attraction is given by the gravity equation with m = 1 kg, M = the mass

of the Earth =

24 610

kg, and r = radius of the Earth (that’s the distance to the center of

the sphere). This distance is r = 6371 km ≈

6

610

meters. Without plugging in the

numbers, can you guess what the answer will turn out to be? Guess, and then check this

footnote2

to see if you guessed correctly.

Suppose you weigh 150 lbs on the Earth. Then your mass is



150lb

2.2

lb

kg

 68kg

. What will

you weigh on the Moon? We can calculate that by using Newton’s Law of Gravity, and

putting in the M = the mass of the Moon =

22 7.310

kg, r = the radius of the moon =

6

1.710

meters. The answer is F = 25 lb. That means you will weigh 25 lb. on the

surface of the Moon.

1) The ionic compound below is soluble in water. Complete the following:
-Draw the interaction of the ionic compound and water in the proper orientation. 3pts
-On the line below discuss the strength of the interaction within the compound compared to the strength of interaction
between the compound and water.

Answers

Answer:

The hydrogens of the water molecules around the bromide ion will need to be faced toward it, whereas the oxygens of the water molecules around the potassium ion will need to be faced toward it.

The strength of the interaction within the compound will supersede that of the interaction between the compound and water.

Explanation:

To answer this question, you need to be aware of the structure of a water molecule and its components. A water molecule has the chemical formula of H2O, and oxygen is inherently electronegative, meaning that it attracts electrons very strongly. As a result, when it is in H2O, it pulls the valence electrons of the H atoms very strongly, which results  in the H atoms being partially positively charged and the O atom being partially negatively charged. Therefore, the O atom is going to be attracted to the potassium ion, whereas the H atom is going to be attracted to the bromide ion.

The answer to the second part of the question is as written above because ionic bonds are stronger than ion-dipole bonds; that's just the way it is.

How many liters of hydrogen gas is produced at 298 K and 0.940 atm if 4.00 moles of hydrochloric acid react with an excess of magnesium metal?
O 26.0 liters
O 52.1 liters
82.3 liters
104 liters

Answers

Answer:

74.04 liters of hydrogen gas are produced.

Explanation: According to reaction, 2 mol of HCl gas gives 1 mole of hydrogen gas, then 6 moles of HCl gas will give: moles of hydrogen gas that is 3 moles.

The pressure of the hydrogen gas at 298 K = 0.990 atm

The volume occupied by the hydrogen gas = V

Number of hydrogen has moles = 3 moles

PV=nRT

V = 74.04 L

74.04 liters of hydrogen gas are produced.

Answer:

38.2 liters Is the answer
