There is no problem with the model formed by atoms as solid spheres for macroscopic measurements because the atoms are extremely small.

<h3>What is Dalton's atomic model?</h3>

This was formulated in 1808 and states that atoms with spheres cannot be divided. It also states that solids are formed by contact between the spheres and chemical compounds from joining of atoms of two or more elements.

The size of the atoms in the form of sphere is very small as it is known that it is of the order of 10⁻⁹ m, therefore, having a macroscopic crystal more than 10⁻⁶ m in length which is why the model of the atom as solid spheres for macroscopic measurements has no problem.

What solid would form when phosphoric acid (H3PO4) is added to milk of magnesia (Mg(OH)2)
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Mg₃(PO₄)₂

Explanation:

This is a neutralization reaction between an acid and a base

The acid here is H₃PO₄

         base is Mg(OH)₂

Every chemical reaction is made up of reactants on the left side and products formed on the right hand side of the expression;

          3Mg(OH)₂_{(s)}  + 2H₃PO₄_{(aq)}   →   Mg₃(PO₄)₂_{(s)}   +    6H₂O_{(l)}

The reaction above is a double replacement reaction in which two ionic compounds gives an insoluble precipitate as a product when their ions displace one another in solution.

The solid formed is Mg₃(PO₄)₂

Alika [10]
The statement for the said principle is "If a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium moves to counteract the change." If the reaction gives off energy or is exothermic then the statement will be false however when the reaction absorbs energy or is endothermic then the statement will be true.
