<u>Answer:</u> 3 neutrons are produced in the above nuclear reaction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.

The nuclear reaction for the fission of Americium-244 isotope follows:

^{244}_{95}\textrm{Am}\rightarrow ^{134}_{53}\textrm{I}+^{107}_{42}\textrm{Mo}+Y^1_0\textrm{n}

<u>To calculate Y:</u>

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

\Rightarrow 244=134+107+(Y\times 1)\\\\\Rightarrow Y=244-241=3

Hence, 3 neutrons are produced in the above nuclear reaction.

Steam initially at 0.3 MPa, 2500 C is cooled at constant volume. (a) At what temperature will steam become saturated vapour? [12
Scilla [17]

Answer:

a. 123.9°C

b.

c.

Explanation:

Hello, I'm attaching a picture with the numerical development of this exercise.

a. Since the steam is overheated vapour, the specific volume is gotten from the corresponding table. Then, as it became a saturated vapour, we look for the interval in which the same volume of state 1 is, then we interpolate and get the temperature.

b. Now, at 80°C, since it is about a rigid tank (constant volume for every thermodynamic process), the specific volume of the mixture is 0.79645 m^3/kg as well, so the specific volume for the liquid and the vapour are taken into account to get the quality of 0.234.

c. Now,since this is an isocoric process, the heat transfer per kg of steam is computed as the difference in the internal energy, considering the initial condition (showed in a. part) and the final one computed here.

** The thermodynamic data were obtained from Cengel's thermodynamics book 7th edition.

Best regards.

What would be the products for the reaction Br2 + KI →? (Just identify the correct products for the reaction. You do not need to
Savatey [412]

<u>Answer:</u> The products of the reaction will be I_2\text{ and }KBr

<u>Explanation:</u>

Single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its chemical reaction.

The general chemical equation for the single displacement reaction follows:

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

The given chemical equation follows:

Br_2+2KI\rightarrow I_2+2KBr

Bromine element is more reactive than iodine element. Thus, can easily replace iodine from its chemical reaction.

Hence, the products of the reaction will be I_2\text{ and }KBr

You've just solved a problem and the answer is the mass of an electron, me=9.11×10−31kilograms. How would you enter this number
irina1246 [14]

Answer: 9.11\times 10^{-31}kg

Explanation:

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value or the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.

Rules for significant figures:

Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.

All non-zero numbers are always significant.

All zero’s between integers are always significant.

All zero’s after the decimal point are always significant.

All zero’s preceding the first integers are never significant.

Thus 9.11\times 10^{-31}kg has three significant figures

Answer:

3.02× 10²⁴ atoms

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of nitrogen atoms = ?

Number of moles of N₂O = 2.51 mol

Solution:

1 mole contain 2 mole of nitrogen atoms.

2.51 × 2 = 5.02  mol

According to Avogadro number,

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

5.02  mol ×  6.022 × 10²³ atoms / 1 mol

30.2 × 10²³ atoms

3.02× 10²⁴ atoms
