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.

Is gastric (stomach) fluid an acid or a base?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: the such thing that we call gastric acid, is made/produced by the cells that srebwithi any lining of our stomac, they are coupled in places like feedback system that extend to the acid production when it is needed.

other cells that are within our stomach will bicarbonat, at the base to buffer the fluid making sure that it doesn’t become too acidic

so yes it is

A steel cylinder of oxygen is being store in a room at 25.0 °C under a pressure of 1250 atm. What pressure would be exerted by t
Rudik [331]

Answer:

P₂ = 1312.88 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial temperature = 25°C

Initial pressure = 1250 atm

Final temperature = 40°C

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

Initial temperature = 25°C (25+273.15 = 298.15 K)

Final temperature = 40°C ( 40+273.15 = 313.15 k)

The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.

Mathematical relationship:

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

Now we will put the values in formula:

1250 atm / 298.15 K = P₂/313.15 K

P₂ = 1250 atm × 313.15 K / 298.15 K

P₂ = 391437.5 atm. K /298.15 K

P₂ = 1312.88 atm

In an exothermic reaction, energy is blank the surroundings.
S_A_V [24]

Answer: released to; absorbed from

- In an exothermic reaction, energy is released to the surroundings.

- In an endothermic reaction, energy is absorbed from the surroundings.

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs spontaneously and brings about the release of energy to the surroundings. Hence, the reacting vessel feels hot as the reaction proceeds.

An endothermic reaction, on the other hand, does not occur spontaneously and proceed only when energy is absorbed from the surroundings. Hence, the reacting vessel feels cold as the reaction proceeds.

What type of ions do metals naturally form? Negative ions, by gaining electrons to fill the valence shell Negative ions, by losi
Mila [183]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Metals are the species which contain more number of electrons.

When a specie loses electrons then it acquires a positive charge. Whereas when an atom gains electrons then it acquires a negative charge.

Thus, as metals have more number of electrons, therefore, in order to gain stability metals readily lose electrons.

Hence, metals naturally form positive ions, by losing electrons to empty the valence shell.
