Answer:
Aluminium was named after alum, which is called 'alumen' in Latin. This name was given by Humphry Davy, an English chemist, who, in 1808, discovered that aluminium could be produced by electrolytic reduction from alumina (aluminium oxide), but did not manage to prove the theory in practice.
Explanation:
Answer: Physical properties
Explanation: Can be measured without changing a substance's chemical identity.
From ideal gas equation that is PV=nRT
n(number of moles)=PV/RT
P=760 torr
V=4.50L
R(gas constant =62.363667torr/l/mol
T=273 +273=298k
n is therefore (760torr x4.50L) /62.36367 torr/L/mol x298k =0.184moles
the molar mass of NO2 is 46 therefore density= 0.184 x 46=8.464g/l
Answer:
Their positive charge is located in the small nucleus
Explanation:
Ernest Rutherford performed the gold foil experiment in 1911 where he used alpha particles generated from a radioactive source to bombard a thin gold foil.
In his experiment, he observed that the bulk of the alpha particles passed through the gold foil, just a tiny fraction was deflected back. To explain his findings, Rutherford proposed that an atom is made of positively charged centre where nearly all the mass is concentrated called nucleus. Surrounding the nucleus is a large space containing electrons.
