What are examples of reactants?

What are examples of reactants? Examples of Reactants The wax of a candle and oxygen in air are reactants in a combustion reaction. When you burn methane gas, the reactants are methane (CH4) and oxygen in air (O2). When water forms from its elements, the reactants are hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) gas. What are […]

How does a photon interacts with matter?

How does a photon interacts with matter? In a pair-production interaction, the photon interacts with the nucleus in such a manner that its energy is converted into matter. The interaction produces a pair of particles, an electron and a positively charged positron. These two particles have the same mass, each equivalent to a rest mass […]

Why is energy released in a fission reaction?

Why is energy released in a fission reaction? Fission is the splitting of heavy nuclei (such as uranium) – in two smaller nuclei. This process needs less energy to ‘bind’ them together – so energy is released. The larger nuclei again needs less energy to hold it together – so energy is released. What is […]

What is the main function of integrated circuit?

What is the main function of integrated circuit? An integrated circuit, or IC, is small chip that can function as an amplifier, oscillator, timer, microprocessor, or even computer memory. An IC is a small wafer, usually made of silicon, that can hold anywhere from hundreds to millions of transistors, resistors, and capacitors. What are the […]
