Concept explainers
(a)
Q -value of the reaction.
(a)
Answer to Problem 48GP
Q -value of the reaction is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Reaction
Formula used:
Q -value is calculated as the difference between the mass of the reactant and the product.
Calculation:
Q -value is calculated as
Conclusion:
Thus, Q -value of the reaction is
(b)
Kinetic energy of the reactants.
(b)
Answer to Problem 48GP
Kinetic energy of the reactants is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Radius of atomic nuclei is
Formula Used:
Potential energy is given as
Calculation:
Kinetic energy is equal to the electrical potential energy of the two nuclei when they come in contact. Thus, kinetic energy of each nucleus is
Conclusion:
Thus, the kinetic energy of each reactant is
(c)
The temperature of the collision.
(c)
Answer to Problem 48GP
