A: Scientists have not yet gotten a fusion reaction to happen on Earth.
B: Per gram of fuel, fission releases more energy than fusion.
C: The energy from fusion cannot yet be converted to electricity.
D: Fusion requires conditions that use too much energy to maintain.
According to the nuclear fission and nuclear fusion reactions,energy from fusion cannot yet be converted to electricity.
There are two types of nuclear reactions which are nuclear fusion and nuclear fission .They involve the combination and disintegration of the element's nucleus respectively.
In nuclear fission, the nucleus of the atom is bombarded with electrons of low energy which splits the nucleus in to two parts .Large amount of energy is released in the process.It is used in nuclear power reactors as it produces large amount of energy.
In nuclear fusion,on the other hand, is a reaction which occurs when two or more atoms combine to form a heavy nucleus.Large amount of energy is released in the process which is greater than that of the energy which is released in nuclear fission process.

Answer: The percentage by mass of carbon in the given compound is 45.8 %
Explanation:
We are given a chemical compound having chemical formula
To calculate the percentage composition of an element in a compound, we use the equation:
In 1 mole of given compound, 10 moles of carbon atoms are there.
Mass of
Mass of carbon element =
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, percentage of carbon in given compound is 45.8 %.
(2) more effective particle collisions occur
(3) the required activation energy increases
(4) the concentration of the reactants increases
number of protons
number of neutrons
number of valence electrons
For example,
"Which of the following molecules is expected to have one or more unpaired electrons? Check all that apply.
O2-
F2+
N22-
O22-"
Any help would be appreciated. ...?
To determine unpaired electrons, look at the valence electrons in an ion's molecule, accounting for extra or absent electrons due to the ion's charge. For instance, O2- and F2+ have one unpaired electron, but N22- is not a valid ion, and O22- electrons are all paired.
To determine if a molecular ion will have one or more unpaired electrons, we need to look at the number of valence electrons in the molecule and take into account any extra or absent electrons due to the charge of the ion.
For example, O2- has 12 + 1 = 13 valence electrons (6 from each oxygen atom and 1 extra due to the negative charge). It requires 14 for all the electrons to be paired (2 in each oxygen's inner shell and 4 bonds or lone pairs in the outer shell), thus there is one unpaired electron in O2-.
However, in F2+, there are only 13 electrons because one electron is lost due to the positive charge. Like oxygen, fluorine also prefers to have 7 electrons in its outer shell, so there are also unpaired electrons in F2+.
N22- doesn’t exist because nitrogen normally forms triple bond and doesn’t need or want to take extra electrons, so this molecular ion is not valid.
O22- has 14 + 2 = 16 valence electrons and this total number of valence electrons is an even number, which indicates all the electrons are paired.
