Due: 10 May 2016
2nd Due date: 13 May 2016
Use lecture notes, textbooks, Chart of the Nuclides, Table of the Isotopes, and web pages. Use the chart of the nuclides as your primary dataset for isotope half-life. Show your work or references on a separate page and save electronically. Submission of the work is not required for the 1st due date. Please use 3 significant digits for your answers. For scientific notation please use X.XXEX (i.e, 1230 as 1.23E3)
Lecture 14: Plutonium Chemistry
Lecture 15: Americium and Curium Chemistry
Lecture 16: Chemistry in Reactor Fuel
Lecture 17: Separations

ReplyDeleteI have a question about #5. I see where your answers come from, Ksp = [PuO2][OH-] which is where my spreadsheet answers differ from your answers. But when PuO2(OH)2 dissociates, isn't there 2 OH- floating around forcing the equation to be Ksp = [PuO2][OH-]2 (the OH- should be squared)?
ReplyDeleteLet me recheck these.
DeleteQuiz completed and submitted yesterday. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI have the same question about number 5 as Lena Wright. Even though the molarity I got was 1800 which does not make much sense.
ReplyDelete[OH]=10^-(14-1)
[OH]=1E-13M
[puO2]=1.8E-23/[1E-13]^2= 1.8E3M that means 1800 moles/liter?
That is the same answer i got on the first one.
DeleteWould there be any reason in which we would not square [OH-]? I found that I obtain the same answers as those posted in the answer sheet when [OH-] is not squared.
Deleteyes, the equation and answer above is correct. This would mean highly soluble at pH 1. The correction will be post.
DeleteImproved Quiz 4 answers now available. Correct Question 5 included! Thanks for the comments, really appreciated!
ReplyDeleteAll done with the Quiz! Thanks for the help during office hours.
