The biggest reason is radioactive wastes. Nuclear power generated radioactive wastes like Uranimum, plutonium and amercium that inhibits gene expression and causes cancer to the environment. Nuclear plants use to release these wastes into the oceans, and it causes fishes to exhibit gender change, 3 eyes, 2 tails etc. The impact on human shows signs of serious blood, liver and lung cancers.
There are currently no way to get rid of these wastes as they take hundred thousands of years to decompose.
Another reason is they cause a small amount of green gas emission. Releases CO2 to the sky. They exhibit radioactive gas emission as well (causes cancer) .
Answer
False
Explanation
Specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to rise the temperature of a substance by one degree celsius.It is expressed in units of thermal energy per degree temperature.A calorimeter is used when measuring the heat capacity of a reaction.Molar heat capacity is amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius.
Oxidation happens at the anode and reduction happens at the cathode.<span />
Answer:
Explanation:
Reaction given
6 H⁺ + 2 MnO₄⁻ + 5 (COOH)₂ = 10CO₂ +8H₂O + 2 Mn⁺²
Oxidation number of Mn in MnO₄⁻
= x - 4 x 2 = -1
x = 8 -1
+ 7
Oxidation no of Mn in Mn⁺² = +2
So its oxidation no is decreased from + 7 to + 2 . Hence it is reduced.
