in rutherford's gold foil experiment a very small number of alpha particles were deflected. what about the structure of the atoms that could have caused this?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:The atom being mostly empty space. A small number of alpha particles were deflected by large angles (> 4°) as they passed through the foil. There is a concentration of positive charge in the atom. Like charges repel, so the positive alpha particles were being repelled by positive charge

Acetylene gas is often used in welding torches because of the very high heat produced when it reacts with oxygen gas, producing carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. Calculate the moles of oxygen needed to produce 0.095 of carbon dioxide. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.

Answers

Answer:

0.12 mol O₂

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced combustion reaction

C₂H₂ + 2.5 O₂ ⇒ 2 CO₂ + H₂O

Step 2: Establish the appropriate molar ratio

We want to know the moles of oxygen needed to produce 0.095 moles of carbon dioxide. The molar ratio of O₂ to CO₂ is 2.5:2.

Step 3: Calculate the moles of oxygen needed to produce 0.095 moles of carbon dioxide

0.095 mol CO₂ × 2.5 mol O₂/2 mol CO₂ = 0.12 mol O₂

Explanation:

Initial Concentration [A]o = 0.27M

Rate constant, k = 0.75 s^-1

Final concentration [A] = ?

B. Y will form oxides of X, but only indirectly
C. X will replace ions of Y in a solution
D. Y will replace ions of X in a solution

Answers

Answer:

D. Y will replace ions of X in a solution

Explanation:

If metal X is lower than metal Y on the activity series, then Y will replace ions of X in a solution.

This is the crux of single displacement reactions.

In a single displacement reaction, a metallic ion in solution is replaced by a metal higher in the activity series than the metal in solution. On the activity series, metals higher are more reactive and will displace the lower and less reactive ones. Reactivity increases up the group.

determine the specific heat ofmaterial if a 12g sample absorbed 48j as it was heated from 20-40

Answers

Answer:

c =0.2 J/g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat of material = ?

Mass of sample = 12 g

Heat absorbed = 48 J

Initial temperature = 20°C

Final temperature = 40°C

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT =  40°C -20°C

ΔT =  20°C

48 J = 12 g×c×20°C

48 J =240 g.°C×c

c = 48 J/240 g.°C

c =0.2 J/g.°C

The most useful property of metalloids is their
(A) Varying ability to conduct electric current.
(B) Softness and malleability.
(C) Tendency to be unreactive.
(D) Ability to be pulled out into long wires.

Answers

Answer:

An element is the simplest form of matter that cannot be split into simpler substances or built from simpler substances by any ordinary chemical or physical method. There are 110 elements known to us, out of which 92 are naturally occurring, while the rest have been prepared artificially. Elements are further classified into metals, non-metals, and metalloids.

Table 2.11.1: Characteristic properties of metallic and non-metallic elements:

Distinguishing luster (shine)

Non-lustrous, various colors

Nonmetals

Elements that tend to gain electrons to form anions during chemical reactions are called non-metals. These are electronegative elements. They are non-lustrous, brittle and poor conductors of heat and electricity (except graphite). Non-metals can be gaseous, liquids or solids.

Physical Properties of nonmetals:

Physical State: Most of the non-metals exist in two of the three states of matter at room temperature: gases (oxygen) and solids (carbon).

Non-Malleable and Ductile: Non-metals are very brittle, and cannot be rolled into wires or pounded into sheets.

Conduction: They are poor conductors of heat and electricity.

Luster: These have no metallic luster and do not reflect light

Conductivity: Poor conductors of heat and electricity

Melting and Boiling Points: The melting points of non-metals are generally lower than metals

Seven non-metals exist under standard conditions as diatomic molecules:

H2(g)

N2(g)

O2(g)

F2(g)

Cl2(g)

Br2(l)

I2(l) (volatile liquid - evaporates readily)

Chemical Properties of Nonmetals

Non-metals have a tendency to gain or share electrons with other atoms. They are electronegative in character.

Nonmetals, when reacting with metals, tend to gain electrons (typically attaining noble gas electron configuration) and become anions:

Nonmetal + Metal -> Salt

3Br2(l)+2Al(s)→2AlBr3(s)(2.11.4)

Compounds composed entirely of nonmetals are molecular substances (not ionic).

They generally form acidic or neutral oxides with oxygen that that dissolve in water react to form acids:

Physical Properties of Metalloids

State: They are all solid at room temperature.

Conduction: Some metalloids, such as silicon and germanium, can act as electrical conductors under the right conditions, thus they are called semi-conductors.

Luster: Silicon for example appears lustrous, but is not malleable or ductile (it is brittle - a characteristic of some nonmetals). It is a much poorer conductor of heat and electricity than the metals.

Solid Solutions: They can form alloys with other metals.

Chemical Properties of Metalloids

Their physical properties tend to be metallic, but their chemical properties tend to be non-metallic.

The oxidation number of an element in this group can range from +3 to -2, depending on the group in which it is located.

Trends in Metallic and Nonmetallic Character

Metallic character is strongest for the elements in the leftmost part of the periodic table, and tends to decrease as we move to the right in any period (nonmetallic character increases with increasing ionization values). Within any group of elements (columns), the metallic character increases from top to bottom (the ionization values generally decrease as we move down a group). This general trend is not necessarily observed with the transition metals.

(A) Varying ability to conduct electric current.

Explanation:

The most useful property of metalloids is their varying ability to conduct electric current.

Metalloids are elements or substances that shares properties that transcends between those of a true metal and non-metal.

Based on their properties that straddles those of metals and non-metals, they find good use in electronic parts. Most importantly because they have varying ability to conduct electric current. They conduct current under certain conditions.

A. Radiation
B. Conduction
C. Convection

Answer: A

Explanation:

The heat contained in the car was transferred to the car primarily by the process of radiation.

Radiation is the emission of electromagnetic wave energy that originates from a source and travels via a space medium with the speed of light. When it is sunny during the day, all life forms and inanimate objects are exposed to radiation. Since a car has metallic properties, it has the ability to store and contain the heat for a longer period of time through the process known as radiation.

What is true of the orbitals in the 3d energy level?

A. They have higher energy than 2s orbitals.
B. They have lower energy than 4f orbitals.
C. Together, the five 3d orbitals can hold 10 electrons.
D. All of the above are true.

Answers

Answer:

D. All of the above are true.

Explanation:

All the given options in the problem are true.

According to Aufbau's principle, the sublevels with lower energy are filled before those with higher energies.

The order of filling according to their energies is;

1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s 4d 5p 6s 4f 5d 6p

We see that the 3d energy level is lower than 4f but higher than 2s.

Also, the 3d orbital has 5 subshells and each can hold a maximum of two electrons.

This gives a capacity of 10 electrons.

An average human body has 84.0 g of chlorine (as chloride ions) in it. If the average mass of a human body is 70.0 kg, what is the concentration of chlorine in ppth?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]ppth=1.2ppth[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the parts per thousand of a solute in a solute is defined in terms of its grams per kilogram of solution (unlike parts per million which are mg/kg) we can mathematically represent it via:

[tex]ppth=\frac{grams_{solute}}{kg{solution}}[/tex]

Now, since the whole human body acts as the solution and the chlorine in the form of ions as the solute, the required ppth turns out:

[tex]ppth=\frac{84.0g}{70.0kg}\\\\ppth=1.2ppth[/tex]

Best regards!
