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
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 reactionsNuclear 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.

Where do diamonds come from?
Answer: Diamonds were first discovered and mined in India over 2,400 years ago.
Explanation: Over time, diamonds were found in many other areas around the world, including many in Africa. In today's trade, Africa, Russia, Australia, and Canada produce the most diamonds.
~Wonderopolis
Answer:
Diamonds are formed when under the heat and pressure of the earth's gravity. Diamonds have to be underground to be formed so they should be underground. Digging to Y11 is deep enough to find diamonds .

Relate dark matter to the development of the universe after the Big Bang. In 3-5 sentences, speculate on how the development of the universe would have been different if there had been no dark matter. In your answer, use the term structures.
Please answer this and ill mark you as brainliest
Answer:
Dark matter also called baronic matter is the matter that makes up 27% of the universe.
In 1933 it was determined as that mass that cannot be seen, that is, the non-visible mass of outer space.
Dark matter also plays a central role in the formation of structures and the evolution of galaxies and has measurable effects on the anisotropy of cosmic microwave background radiation. The composition of this matter is unknown today.
The dark matter component has considerably more mass than the "visible" component of the Universe.
Explanation:
There are certain researchers who say that the appearance of dark matter was before the appearance of the big bang.
A relevant fact of this matter is that dark matter exerts gravity, and that gravity affects the movements of objects.
Despite the fact that nothing is known about its origin, astronomers have amply demonstrated that dark matter plays a determining role in the formation of galaxies and galactic clusters, which could not maintain their cohesion without its existence, but many doubt that it is the remainder / remnant or product of a big bang.

What slows down heat energy from escaping the Earth?
Answer:
Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and water vapor make an atmosphere around the earth and make less heat escape
Explanation:
Balance the following equation by adding the correct mole numbers.
P⁴+Cl²->PCl³
Hey there!
P₄ + Cl₂ → PCl₃
First, let's balance Cl.
There are 2 on the left, and 3 on the right.
To balance this, let's put a coefficient of 3 in front of Cl₂ and a coefficient of 2 in front of PCl₃.
P₄ + 3Cl₂ → 2PCl₃
Now we have 6 on the left and 6 on the right.
Next, let's balance P.
There are 4 on the left and 2 on the right.
Let's change the coefficient in front of PCl₃ from 2 to 4.
P₄ + 3Cl₂ → 4PCl₃
There are now 4 P on each side.
However, now Cl is unbalanced, with 6 on the left and 12 on the right.
We can change the coefficient in front of Cl₂ from 3 to 6.
P₄ + 6Cl₂ → 4PCl₃
So now, we have 4 P on each side and 12 C on each side.
This is our final balanced equation.

A typical cell phone uses wavelength of 0.36meters. How much energy does this wave have?
Answer:
55×10^-26 J
Explanation:
We can calculate the energy of the wave from
E= hc/λ
Where
h= Planks constant = 6.6×10^-34 Is
c= speed of light = 3×10^8 ms-1
λ= wavelength of the wave = 0.36 metres
Recall that cell phone use radio waves which belong to the electromagnetic spectrum hence it must possess the speed of light.
E= 6.6×10^-34 × 3×10^8/ 0.36
E= 55×10^-26 J
Hence the energy possessed by 0.36 meters wavelength radio waves is 55×10^-26 J

How are electrons similar and different to the planet Earth?
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.

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.
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.
Answer:
C. Its polar end mixes with the water so it can be washed away.
