Question 1

Extremely high temperatures were required to initiate nuclear fusion,but,once started,large amounts of energy were released while fusion reactions of lighter nuclei formed isotopes up to ⁵⁶Fe.This is analogous to __________

Accepted Answer

Lighting a match to start a fire is analogous because it requires an initial input of energy to start the reaction, but once started, it releases a large amount of energy.

Question 2

Which nuclear reaction is NOT correctly written?

Accepted Answer

None of these codes match any known nuclear reaction notation.

Question 3

TNT,or trinitrotoluene,has the chemical formula C₇H₅N₃O₆.How many grams of nitrogen are present in 25 grams TNT (227.13 g/mol)?

Accepted Answer

The chemical formula of TNT contains 3 nitrogen atoms. To calculate the amount of nitrogen in 25 grams of TNT, we can use the following calculation:

- Calculate the number of moles of TNT: 25 g / 227.13 g/mol = 0.11 mol TNT
- Calculate the number of moles of nitrogen: 0.11 mol TNT x 3 mol N/mol TNT = 0.33 mol N
- Calculate the mass of nitrogen: 0.33 mol N x 14.01 g/mol = 4.6 g N

Therefore, there are 4.6 grams of nitrogen present in 25 grams of TNT. The best choice is D.

Question 4

According to the Big Bang theory,which statement about the origin of the elements is NOT correct?

Accepted Answer

Most nuclear reactions that form elements release energy, rather than requiring an input of energy.

Question 5

Question 6

Which statement is NOT correct regarding primordial nucleosynthesis?

Accepted Answer

Primordial nucleosynthesis involved the fusion of protons and neutrons to form deuterons, and further fusion processes led to the formation of helium and other light elements. The annihilation of electrons and positrons to form gamma rays is not a direct part of nucleosynthesis.

Question 7

The peak in nuclear binding energy/nucleon occurs at an isotope of __________

Accepted Answer

The peak in nuclear binding energy/nucleon occurs at iron (Fe-56) because it has the highest binding energy per nucleon. Iron has a balanced number of protons and neutrons, which leads to the strongest nuclear force and therefore the highest binding energy per nucleon.

Question 8

A 1.5 g tablet for pain might contain 0.30 g acetaminophen (C₈H₉NO₂,151.16 g/mol)and 0.044 g codeine (C₁₈H₂₁NO₃,299.36 g/mol).Calculate the number of moles of codeine in the tablet.

Accepted Answer

The number of moles of codeine in the tablet can be calculated using the formula:Moles of codeine = Mass of codeine / Molar mass of codeineMass of codeine = 0.044 gMolar mass of codeine = 299.36 g/molMoles of codeine = 0.044 g / 299.36 g/mol = 1.47 x 10^-4 molTherefore, the number of moles of codeine in the tablet is 1.47 x 10^-4 mol, which is closest to choice A) 1.5 x 10^-4 mol.

Question 9

How many grams of P₄ (123.88 g/mol)would contain the same number of atoms as 154 g S₈ (256.48 g/mol)?

Accepted Answer

First, we need to calculate the number of atoms in 154 g of S₈. We can do this by dividing the mass of S₈ by its molecular weight, and then multiplying by Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23): Number of atoms in 154 g of S₈ = (154 g / 256.48 g/mol) x (6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol) = 3.62 x 10^23 atoms Next, we need to find the mass of P₄ that contains the same number of atoms. To do this, we can use the formula: moles = number of atoms / Avogadro's number moles of S₈ = 3.62 x 10^23 atoms / (6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol) = 0.601 mol moles of P₄ = moles of S₈ (since they contain the same number of atoms) mass of P₄ = moles of P₄ x molecular weight of P₄ mass of P₄ = 0.601 mol x 123.88 g/mol = 74.4 g Therefore, the best choice is D, 149 g P₄ (closest to 74.4 g x 2).

Question 11

In early 2013,platinum (195.078 g/mol)was selling for about $1575 per troy ounce (one troy ounce is equal to 31.10 g).How many platinum atoms could you buy for $20.00?

Accepted Answer

To convert troy ounces to grams, we use the conversion factor: 1 troy ounce = 31.10 g.So, 1 troy ounce of platinum = 31.10 g of platinum.To convert grams to moles, we use the molar mass of platinum: 195.078 g/mol.So, 31.10 g of platinum = 31.10 g / 195.078 g/mol = 0.1594 mol of platinum.To convert moles to atoms, we use Avogadro's number: 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol.So, 0.1594 mol of platinum = 0.1594 mol x 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol = 9.60 x 10^22 atoms of platinum.To find out how many platinum atoms we can buy for $20.00, we divide the number of atoms by the price per troy ounce and multiply by the price per $20.00:9.60 x 10^22 atoms / $1575 per troy ounce x $20.00 = 1.219 x 10^21 atoms.Therefore, the correct answer is A: 1.219 x 10^21 atoms.

Calculate the number of americium-241 atoms present in a smoke alarm containing 0.30 $\mu$g of radioactive ²⁴¹Am (241.06 g/mol).

Accepted Answer

The correct answer is A because:The number of atoms present in a given mass of a substance can be calculated using Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol).Number of moles of 241Am = 0.30 x 10^-10 g / 241.06 g/mol = 1.24 x 10^-13 molNumber of atoms = 1.24 x 10^-13 mol x 6.022 x 10^23 atoms/mol = 7.5 x 10^14 atoms

Gold prices in early 2013 were approximately $51 per gram.Given that the mass of a gold atom is approximately 3.27 $\times$ 10^-22 grams,how many gold atoms could you buy with a quarter ($0.25)?

Accepted Answer

To find the number of gold atoms you can buy with $0.25, first calculate the mass of gold you can buy: $0.25 / $51 per gram = 0.0049 grams. Then, divide this mass by the mass of a single gold atom: 0.0049 grams / 3.27 x 10^-22 grams/atom ≈ 1.5 x 10^19 atoms.
