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.

katovenus [111]

Answer:

Mass of 205 mL of the liquid is 164 g

Explanation:

We know, density=\frac{mass}{volume}

Here density of liquid is 0.798 g/mL and volume of liquid is 205 mL

So, mass of liquid = density\times volume

                              = (0.798 g/mL)\times (205 mL)

                              = 164 g

hence mass of 205 mL of the liquid is 164 g.
