Rutherford’s gold foil experiment gave evidence that an atom is mostly empty space. true false

Chemistry

Sholpan [36]1 year ago

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.

Water is wet. true or false? Why?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

True water is wet because when something is wet in this case it's water it has water on it at a molecular level. Water molecules are bonded on top of each other so it's wet.

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs.
iragen [17]

Answer:

Solid:- Particles vibrate in a rigid structure and do not move relative to their neighbors.

Liquid:- It takes the shape of its container but keeps a constant volume.

Gas:- Particles move rapidly and independently of each other.

Plasma:- It is the most common state of matter in the universe.

Explanation:

Solids are one of the three states of matter and, unlike liquids or gases, they have a definite shape that is not easy to change. Different solids have particular properties such as stretch, STRENGTH, or hardness that make them useful for different jobs.

A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure

Gas is a state of matter that has no fixed shape and no fixed volume. Gases have lower density than other states of matter, such as solids and liquids. When more gas particles enter a container, there is less space for the particles to spread out, and they become compressed. The particles exert more force on the interior volume of the container.

A plasma is a gas that has been energized to the point that some of the electrons break free from, but travel with, their nucleus.

Water can be formed in the following reaction:
andreev551 [17]

Answer is: 10 moles of water will be produced.

Balanced chemical reaction of formation of water:

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O.

n(H₂) = 10 mol; amount of hydrogen gas.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(H₂) : n(H₂O) = 2 : 2 (1 : 1).

n(H₂O) = n(H₂).

n(H₂O) = 10 mol; amount of water.

Identify the substance that conducts electricity. question 19 options: 1) nacl dissolved in water 2) solid nacl 3) solid sugar 4
Delicious77 [7]

The substance that conducts electricity is NaCl dissolved in water.

So, option A is correct one.

When the sodium chloride dissolve in water , the sodium atoms and chlorine atoms separates under the presence of water molecules and exist as sodium cation and chloride anion . Now , they are free to move around in the water as positively and negatively charged ions . This separation of charge allows the solution to conduct electricity.

The solid NaCl and solid sugar does not conduct electricity because it is not dissolve in water . Similarly, sugar dissolved in water does not conduct electricity .
