Fusion processes, like combining two deu...

Fusion processes, like combining two deutrons to form a He nucleus are impossible at ordinary temperature and pressure. The reasons for this can be traced to the fact.

A

nuclear forces have short range.

B

nuclei are positivley charged.

C

the original nuclei must be completley ionized before fusion can take place.

D

the original nuclei must first break up before combining with each other.

Radioactive disintegration is a first order reaction and its rate depends only upon the nature of nucleus and does not depend upon external factors like temperature and pressure. The rate of radioactive disintegration (Activity) is represented as -(dN)/(dt)=lambdaN Where lambda= decay constant, N= number of nuclei at time t, N_(0) =intial no. of nuclei. The above equation after integration can be represented as lambda=(2.303)/(t)log((N_(0))/(N)) Calculate the half-life period of a radioactive element which remains only 1//16 of its original amount in 4740 years: a) 1185 years b) 2370 years c) 52.5 years d) none of these

A vessel of uniform cross-section of length 500 cm as shown in figure is divided in two parts by a weightless and frictionless piston one part contains 5 moles of He(g) and other part 2 moles of H_(2)(g) and 4 moles of O_(2)(g) added at the same temperature and pressure in which reaction takes place finally vessel cooled to 300 K and 1 atm. What is the length of He compartment? (Assume volume of piston and vol. of H_(2)O(l) formed are negligible)

Gibbs Helmholtz equation relates the enthalpy, entropy and free energy change of the process at constant pressure and temperature as DeltaG=DeltaH-TDeltaS " (at constant P, T)" In General the magnitude of DeltaH does not change much with the change in temperature but the terms TDeltaS changes appreciably. Hence in some process spontaneity is very much dependent on temperature and such processes are generally known as entropy driven process. When CaCO_(3) is heated to a high temperature it decomposes into CaO and CO_(2) , however it is quite stable at room temperature. It can be explained by the fact that
