- Uranium hexafluoride, UF6, is processed to produce fuel fornuclear reactors and nuclear weapons. UF6 is made from thereaction of elemental uranium with ClF3, which also producesCl2 as a by-product.(a) Write the balanced molecular equation for the conversionof U and ClF3 into UF6 and Cl2.(b) Is this a metathesis reaction?(c) Is this a redox reaction?arrow_forwardIn an experiment to determine the amount of aspirin in a tablet, one of the bottles of NaOH used was accidentally left open for 24 hours, which lead to it reacting with carbon dioxide. What will be the effect on the calculated amount of aspirin compared to the actual amount in the tablet and the concentration of the NaOH solution? Calculated amount increases since NaOH concentration will be lower than original. Calculated amount increases since NaOH concentration will be higher than original. Calculated amount decreases since NaOH concentration will be lower than original. Calculated amount decreases since NaOH concentration will be higher than original.arrow_forwardWhat is an indicator?
