Hydrogen

on each side must be balanced, meaning that nothing is destroyed or created in the reaction. On pg 72 of the interactive notebook, there is a diagram of a chemical reaction showing a reaction between carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. On the reactant side of the reaction there is 1 carbon, 4 hydrogen, and 4 oxygen. On the product side, although it looks much different, there is still the exact same amount of each, meaning that it created something new (a chemical reaction), but stayed balanced. Also…

Within this center atomic particles called Protons begin to collide with such force that nuclear fusion will occur. Hydrogen atoms, which are relatively light in weight, will form heavier Helium atoms and release energy. With billions of these small reactions occurring energy streams outwards from the center and is emitted as light and heat. Stars are born in clusters…

Background research: Redox reactions includes the two reactions called oxidation and reduction. Oxidation is defined as the loss of electrons, loss of hydrogen and gain of oxygen. Reduction, on the other hand, is defined as the gain of electrons, gain of hydrogen and loss of oxygen. Oxidation occurs when there is an increase in oxidation numbers and reduction occurs when there is a decrease in oxidation numbers. Oxidation numbers are values assigned to an atom in a compound which measures the…

Encyclopedia) The first hydrogen bomb testing was conducted by the United States in 1952 under the code Ivy Mike. The aftermath of the explosion was the vaporization of the entire island that was used for the testing. The explosion of Ivy Mike was equivalent to 10.4 million tons of TNT. Norsar, a Norway based group that monitors nuclear testing claims the Hydrogen bomb test conducted by North Korea was only equal to about 10,000 tons of TNT. This evidence of previous hydrogen bomb experiments…

compound that was the focus of our re- search. GAT is a salt containing a high per- centage of nitrogen. It has two conjugated ni- trogen rings, which are negatively charged, and a positively charged component consisting of nitrogen, carbon, and hydrogen. In addition to the high-energy content of this compound, as a salt, it has a lower heat of degradation due to the ease of breaking its ionic bonds. GAT was found to react with N100, a com- mon curative for HTPB. An alternative isocyan- ate…

The atomic radius will slowly decrease as you move across a period on the periodic table; this is caused by the addition of protons found in the nuclei of the elements. For every new proton being added, several electrons will also be included into this process by joining the identical energy level (ultimately accounting for one electron per element in said period). The electrons then attract the protons, whilst failing to shield from or repulse this attraction. Given the above information, the…

the Most Important Element Alrecus What is Oxygen? Oxygen is one of the periodic table elements. Oxygen is also a gaseous chemical. Oxygen makes up more than twenty percent of the Earth's air. Oxygen is a dry and unscented. Oxygen is exceptionally receptive. Oxygen was found interestingly by a Swedish Chemist, Carl Wilhelm Scheele, in 1772. Joseph Priestly, an 112, freely, found oxygen in 1774 and distributed his discoveries that year, three years before Scheele distributed. Antoine Lavoisier,…

white dwarf. High-mass stars become a supernova, a giant explosion, then can become either a neutron star or a black hole. While still in the main sequence, though, stars go through nuclear fusion to produce heat and energy. This is a process where hydrogen molecules fuse into helium. Nuclear Fusion…

burning. However, in case water is used when removing the residues even after several days, the fire may reignite. The water will firstly expose the surface of the magnesium residues to reaction and react with it (magnesium) to release flammable hydrogen gas hence reigniting the fire. The fire will be accelerated by the oxygen in the air making it more intense and dangerous. The more the surfaces of the magnesium are exposed the higher the intensity of the fire. It is advisable not to use water…

Single Replacement Reactions and Double Replacement Reactions A chemical reaction is a process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance, as opposed to a change in physical form or a nuclear reaction. The evolution of energy as heat and light, production of gas, formation of a precipitate, and color change are 4 indicators of a chemical reaction. Two out of the six types of reactions are the single and the double replacement reactions. During single…
