Question
Chapter 40, Problem 51A
To determine
The new element produced by the fusion of the oxygen and hydrogen.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Nuclear fusion is the process of formation of the new element by the combination of two elements. The nucleus of the new element is heavier than each element.
The atomic number of oxygen is 8, and the mass number is 16. The atomic number of hydrogen is 1, and the mass number is 2.
The new nucleus results from the fusion of oxygen and hydrogen are fluorine. The atomic number of fluorine is the same as the sum of atomic numbers of oxygen and hydrogen is 9.
Conclusion:
Thus, the new nucleus results from the fusion of oxygen and hydrogen are Fluorine.

Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion? What about for a flight from Mars to the earth? (b) How long does a one- way trip from the the earth to Mars take, between the firings of the rockets? (c) To reach Mars from the…arrow_forward
