what is the biggest disadvantage of using nuclear power to produce electricity?

a. nuclear fission releases more air pollution than burning coal

b. nuclear fission produces less energy than burning coal or oil.

c. nuclear waste must be safely stored for many years

d. nuclear waste must be incinerated

Answers

The biggest disadvantage of using nuclear power to produce electricity is the nuclear waste must be safely stored for many years.

What is nuclear power?

Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions to produce electricity. Nuclear power can be obtained from:

Nuclear fission Nuclear decay and Nuclear fusion reactions

Nuclear reactions produces high amount of energy and many waste materials which are non degradable and will stay in the environment for the long time.

Hence, nuclear waste must be safely stored for many years.

How are electrons similar and different to the planet Earth?

Answers

Answer:

The planets themselves are composed of several trillions or quadrillions or more atoms. As far as hard science is concerned, it would be really hard to picture them as electrons. Conclusion: It can be said with a great accuracy that our planets are NOT huge electrons.

Rutherford's experiments showed that the mass of atoms was mostly concentrated in a very small region, with charge equal to the atomic number- the nucleus. He absolutely did not show, nor is it true, that electrons orbit the nucleus as if they were planets. That was a guess people made in trying to figure out how to picture the atom.

How many joules are produced when 45 gram of copper is placed into water that releases them temperature from 12c to 71c (c)=0.75j/g*c

Answers

Answer:

Heat energy (Q) = 1.9925 KJ = 2 KJ (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of copper (M) = 45 gram

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 71°C - 12°C = 59°C

Specific heat (c) =0.75 j /g*c

Find:

Heat energy (Q) = ?

Computation:

Heat energy (Q) = Mass(M) × Change in temperature (ΔT) × Specific heat (c)

Heat energy (Q) = 45 gram × 59°C × 0.75 j /g*c

Heat energy (Q) = 1991.25 J

Heat energy (Q) = 1.9925 KJ = 2 KJ (Approx)

Determine the mass of hydrogen in a 2.5 sample of ammonia
show work using dimensional analysis

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\large \boxed{\text{0.44 g}}[/tex]  

Explanation:

1. Calculate the molar mass of ammonia

1  N = 1 × 14.01    g = 14.01    g

3 H = 3 ×  1.008 g =  3.024     

                   TOTAL = 17.03   g

2. Calculate the mass of hydrogen

So, there are 3.024 g of H in17.03 g of NH₃.

The conversion factor is either

[tex]\dfrac{\text{3.024 g H}}{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}} \text{ or } \dfrac{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}}{\text{3.024 g H}}[/tex]

We want to find grams of H, so we choose the one with grams of H on top.

[tex]\text{Mass of H} = \text{2.5 g NH}_{3} \times \dfrac{\text{3.024 g H}}{\text{17.03 g NH}_{3}} = \textbf{0.44 g H}\\\\\text{The mass of H is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.44 g}}$}[/tex]

Why is soap mixed with water?
O A. The soap turns the water molecules into a nonpolar solvent.
B. It covalently bonds to the water so it can be washed away.
O C. Its polar end mixes with the water so it can be washed away.
D. The soap becomes chemically active when mixed with water.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Soap breaks up the oil into smaller drops, which can mix with the water. It works because soap is made up of molecules with two very different ends. One end of soap molecules love water - they are hydrophilic. The other end of soap molecues hate water - they are hydrophobic.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is NaOH

Explanation:

Strong bases are characterized by the fact that they dissociate completely in an aqueous solution. In this case, sodium hydroxide, NaOH, is classified as a strong base because it dissociates completely in an aqueous solution to form sodium cations, Na+, and hydroxide anions, OH−. Also, it is strong because it totally breaks in its ion. And the base which breaks totally in its atom called the strong base and which doesn't it that is a weak base.

A)
number of electrons

B)
number of protons

C)
atomic number

D)
mass number

Answers

Answer:

A) number of electrons

Explanation:

A calcium atom has 20 electrons while a calcium ion has 18 electrons since it loses 2 electrons to form a stable octet structure. The formula of a calcium ion is Ca2+.

The number of protons does not change, neither do the number of neutrons. Atomic number is the proton number which is equals to the number of protons, hence B and C is wrong. Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons. Hence it doesnt change too and D is wrong.

Only the number of electrons change when an atom forms an ion.

As the temperature of a fixed volume of a gas increases, the pressure will _____. A. vary inversely B. increase C. decrease D. not change

Answers

Answer:

increases

Explanation:

As the temperature of a fixed volume of a gas increases, the pressure will increase.

What is Gay Lussac's law?

According to this law at constant volume of gas, pressure is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas and it is represented as:

P ∝ T.

It means that if pressure increases then temperature is also increases or if pressure decreases then temperature will also decreases.

So, pressure of the gas increases.

What Le Chatelier’s factors cause an increase in the concentration of Hb(CO)4(aq) in the Hb(CO)4(aq) + 4O2(g)Hb(O2)4(aq) + 4CO(g)

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Hb(CO)4(aq) + 4O2(g)  ⇄  Hb(O2)4(aq) + 4CO(g)

1 )  If we increase the concentration of CO(g) , the reaction above will proceed in reverse direction to decrease its concentration,  according to Le Chatelier principle. Hence more of Hb(CO)4(aq) will be formed.

2 )  If we decrease the concentration of O₂ , then also , reaction will proceed in reverse direction . Hence concentration of Hb(CO)4(aq) will be increased .

how many moles of solute are present in 50.0 ml of 0.20 m kno3

Answers

Answer: Volume =  50.0 mL in liters : 50.0 / 1000 = 0.05 L

n = M x V

n = 0.20 x 0.05

n = 0.01 moles of solute

Explanation:

The number of moles of solute are present in 50.0 mL of 0.20 M of KNO₃ solution is 0.01 moles.

How do we calculate moles?

Moles will be calculated by using the molarity formula because molarity is define as the no. of moles of solute present in per liter of the solution as:

M = n/V, where

M = molarity of KNO₃ = 0.2 M

V = volume of solution = 50mL = 0.05L

Moles will be calculated as:

n = (0.2)(0.05) = 0.01 moles

Hence required moles are 0.01 moles.
