What happens when uranium-238 absorbs a neutron?
A. It is converted into large amounts of energy.
.
B. It becomes plutonium-239.
O
C. It becomes plutonium-238.
D. It becomes uranium-235.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. It becomes plutonium-239.

Explanation:

When uranium  - 238 absorbs a neutron, it creates and becomes plutonium - 239 atom.

 This is a nuclear fission process in which a radioactive nucleus is bombarded with a neutron:

  ²³⁸₉₂U    +     ¹₀n   →      ²³⁹₉₂Pu

The plutonium produced is not stable and it immediately disintegrates further.

Answer 2

Answer:

B.) It becomes plutonium-239

The metal rhenium becomes superconducting at temperatures below 1.4 K. Calculate the temperature at which rhenium becomes superconducting in degrees Celsius.

Answers

Answer:

The temperature at which rhenium becomes superconducting is -271.6 ºC.

Explanation:

We can convert the temperature given in Kelvin, which is an absolute scale, into degrees Celsius. which is a relative scale, by a simple algebraic translation, that is:

[tex]T_{C} = T_{K} - 273[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]T_{C}[/tex] - Temperature, measured in degrees Celsius.

[tex]T_{K}[/tex] - Temperature, measured in Kelvins.

If we know that [tex]T_{K} = 1.4\,K[/tex], then the temperature given in degrees Celsius is:

[tex]T_{C} = 1.4\,K-273[/tex]

[tex]T_{C} = -271.6\,^{\circ}C[/tex]

The temperature at which rhenium becomes superconducting is -271.6 ºC.

Select the correct number of valence electrons, in order, for groups 13-18.
13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18
5, 6, 4, 3, 8,7
3,4,5,6,7,8
18, 13, 15, 16, 17, 14

Answers

Answer:

3,4,5,6,7,8

Explanation:

Groups 13  - 18 are the main group on the periodic table

The group number corresponds the number of valence electrons they contains.

Valence electrons are the number of electrons in the outermost shell of an atom.

So group 13 - 18 corresponds to a valency of 3,4,5,6,7,8.

Groups with a valency of 8 are the noble gases.

How many grams of Fe3+ are present in 2.56 grams of iron(III) iodide?

Answers

Answer:

436.55841 grams.

Explanation:

The molecular formula for Iron(III) Iodide is FeI3. The SI base unit for amount of substance is the mole. 1 mole is equal to 1 moles Iron(III) Iodide, or 436.55841 grams.

You use the 1 / 436.55841 conversion rate. This is different for each element, according to the stoichiometry tables. Iron(II) oxide would be 2/3 of the 1/436.55841 conversion rate, that is, multiplying the fraction to denominator.

What kind of intermolecular forces act between a hydrogen cyanide molecule and a potassium cation?
If there is more than one type of intermolecular force that acts, be sure to list them all, with a comma between the name of each force.
(dipole, hydrogen-bonding, dispersion, ion-dipole)

Answers

Answer:

ion-dipole

Explanation:

Let us remember that the potassium cation is an ion, a positive ion to be precise.

There is a dipole existing in the hydrogen cyanide molecule. The positive end of the dipole is on hydrogen while the negative end of the dipole is on the cyanide moiety.

The only possible interaction between the potassium cation and the hydrogen cyanide is an ion dipole interaction. The cation interacts with the cyanide moiety having a partial negative charge in the molecule.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance   = 20miles

         Miles to meters:

             1 mile  = 1609m

              20miles  = 20 x 1609  = 32180m

Time  = 153minutes

             1 min  = 60s

           153min  = 60 x 153  = 9180s

To solve this problem;

        Average speed  = [tex]\frac{distance }{time taken}[/tex]  

         Average speed  = [tex]\frac{32180}{9180}[/tex]   = 3.51m/s

The mole fraction of cation

Solution

Ionization of the Aluminum sulfate solution( assume 1 L solution ) :

mol Al₂(SO₄)₃ = M x V = 1 M x 1 L = 1 mol

Al₂(SO₄)₃⇒2Al³⁺ + 3SO₄²⁻

A chemist adds of a potassium permanganate solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of potassium permanganate the chemist has added to the flask. Round your answer to significant digits.

Answers

Answer:

3.41 g

Explanation:

A chemist adds 260.0 mL of a 0.0832M potassium permanganate solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of potassium permanganate the chemist has added to the flask. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Step 1: Given data

Volume of the solution (V): 260.0 mL (0.2600 L)

Concentration of the solution (C): 0.0832 M (0.0832 mol/L)

Step 2: Calculate the moles (n) of potassium permanganate added

We will use the following expression.

n = C × V

n = 0.0832 mol/L × 0.2600 L = 0.0216 mol

Step 3: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.0216 moles of potassium permanganate

The molar mass of potassium permanganate is 158.03 g/mol.

0.0216 mol × 158.03 g/mol = 3.41 g

The student adds a few drops of bromocresol green to the test tube and observes a yellow color, which indicates that the pH of the solution is less than 3.8 . Based on this result, which of the following is true about the relative concentrations of HC2H3O2 and NaC2H3O2 in the original solution?

Answers

Answer:

[HC2H3O2] > NaC2H3O2

Explanation:

The concentration of [tex]\rm HC_2H_3O_2[/tex] has been higher than the concentration of [tex]\rm NaC_2H_3O_2[/tex].

The pKa has been defined as the acid constant that has been used for the determination of the strength of the acid. The higher the pKa value, the weaker the acid has been.

The [tex]\rm HC_2H_3O_2[/tex] has the pka value 4.8 depicting the solution has been a pH 4.8. With the addition of [tex]\rm NaC_2H_3O_2[/tex], the pH has been shifted towards the acidic condition, thus the Hydrogen concentration has been higher.

The change in the pH has been resulted in the reduction in the pH from the basic to acidic condition. Since the concentration of the [tex]\rm HC_2H_3O_2[/tex] has been higher than the [tex]\rm NaC_2H_3O_2[/tex] concentration, the pH has been shifted towards the more acidic condition.

Thus, the concentration of [tex]\rm HC_2H_3O_2[/tex] has been higher than the concentration of [tex]\rm NaC_2H_3O_2[/tex].

Answer:

Mg(NO4)2 is 180.3 g/mol

Explanation:

First find the substance formula.

Magnesium Nitrate.

Magnesium is a +2 charge.

Nitrate is a -1 charge.

So to balance the chemical formula,

We need 1 magnesium atom for every nitrate atom.

2(1) + 1(-2) = 0

So the substance formula is Mg(NO4)2.

Now find the molar mass of Mg(NO4)2.

Mg = 24.3 amu

N = 14.0 amu

O = 16.0 amu

They are three nitrogen and twelve oxygen atoms.

So you do this: 24.3 + 14.0(2) + 16.0(8) = 180.3 g/mol

So the molar is mass is 180.3 g/mol.

The final answer is Mg(NO4)2 is 180.3 g/mol
