Answer:

An atom consists of a positively charged nucleus, surrounded by one or more negatively charged particles called electrons. The positive charges equal the negative charges, so the atom has no overall charge; it is electrically neutral.

Which of the following statements about atoms is true?

makkiz [27]

Answer:

d. All of the above three answers are correct

Explanation:

Atoms are themselves built up from many smaller particles. According to Rutherford's nuclear theory (1906), the neutron and proton make up the nucleus of the atom. Atoms are electrically neutral because they contain the same number of electrons and protons. The size of atoms is about $10^{-10}$ meters. The fundamental particle of the atom is the electron.

Ppredict the identity of the precipitate in the below reaction: BaCl2(aq) + K2SO4(aq) →

Annette [7]

Answer: The precipitate formed is $BaSO_4$

Explanation:

A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place. The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid or precipitated form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.

A double displacement reaction in which one of the product is formed as a solid is called as precipitation reaction.

The balanced chemical equation is:

$K_2SO_4(aq)+BaCl_2(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)+2KCl(aq)$
