The given statement is true .

<h3>What is Rutherford’s gold foil  experiment?</h3>
  • A piece of gold foil was hit with alpha particles, which have a favorable charge. Most alpha particles went right around. This showed that the gold particles were mostly space.
  • The Rutherford gold leaf investigation supposed that most (99%) of all the mass of an atom is in the middle of the atom, that the nucleus is very small (105 times small than the length of the atom) and that is positively captured.
  • For the distribution experiment, Rutherford enjoyed a metal sheet that could be as thin as practicable. Gold is the most malleable of all known metals. It can easily be converted into very thin sheets. Hence, Rutherford established a gold foil for his alpha-ray scattering experimentation.

A sample of a pure element has a mass of 45.6g and contains 4.19 x 10 23 atoms. Identify the element.
max2010maxim [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

    ZINC

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<em>To identify the element based on the informartion given, we have to find the molar mass since this mass is unique to each element.</em>

            Molar mass = mass ÷ moles

<em>We already know the mass based on the question, as such we now need to find the # of moles.</em>

           Since 1 mole contains 6.02214 × 10²³ atoms

      then let  x moles contain 4.19 × 10²³ atoms <em>(given in the question)</em>

<em>     </em><em> </em>   ⇒   x =  (4.19 × 10²³ atoms  ×  1 mol) ÷ 6.02214 × 10²³ atoms

              x  =  0.69577 mol

<em>Now that we have the moles we can substitute it into the molar mass equation and solve for the molar mass.</em>

           ⇒ molar mass = 45.6 g ÷ 0.69577 mol

           ⇒ molar mass ≈  65.54 g/mol

                    This molar mass is closest to that of ZINC.
