Question
Chapter 22, Problem 22.19E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Whether the smaller or larger microspheres would be better targets according to Laplace-Young equation for fusion at very high temperatures and pressures is to be stated. Whether the answer supports or detracts from the possibility of sustained fusion under the conditions of very high temperatures and pressures is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Surface tension is the tension of a liquid surface that causes due to the attraction of liquid particles in the liquid surface by the liquid particle present in the bulk of the liquid. The surface tension tries to attain a minimum surface area. The formula of surface tension is given by the expression as shown below.

Berzelius originally claimed that beryllium was a trivalent element (forming Be3+ ions) and that it gave an oxide with the formula Be2O3. This resulted in a calculated atomic mass of 13.5 for beryllium. In formulating his periodic table, Mendeleev proposed that beryllium was divalent (forming Be2+ ions) and that it gave an oxide with the formula Be2O3. This assumption gives an atomic mass of 9.0. In 1894, A. Combes (Comptes Rendus 1894, p. 1221) reacted beryllium with the anion C5H7O2and measured the density of the gaseous product. Combess data for two different experiments are as follows: I II Mass 0.2022 g 0.2224 g Volume 22.6 cm3 26.0 cm3 Temperature 13C 17C Pressure 765.2 mm Hg 764.6 mm If beryllium is a divalent metal, the molecular formula of the product will be Be(C5H7O2)2; if it is trivalent, the formula will be Be(C5H7O2)3. Show how Combess data help to confirm that beryllium is a divalent metal.arrow_forward

Polymerization reactions are complicated somewhat because they involve very large numbers of molecules.
