Answer:

Both Thomson and Rutherford's model corroborated the presence of negative charged electrons. However, Rutherford's model suggested that the electrons are not static but they revolve around the nucleus in fixed orbits.

Explanation:

J. J. Thomson's model of an atom also called as the 'plum-pudding' model preceded that of Rutherford's model. As per the former, every atom is composed of a negatively charged electrons dispersed in a cloud of positive charge. The electrons were compared to the 'plums' spread in the positive environment of the 'pudding'.

Rutherford conducted his famous gold foil experiment, in which he bombarded positively charged alpha particles against a thin sheet of gold foil and observed their trajectory of scattering. He noticed that most of the particles passed through however, some of them bounced back. Based on the model, it was concluded that

1) Most of the space inside an atom is empty

2) The mass of an atom is primarily concentrated in the nucleus core which is positively charged.

3) Negatively charged electrons revolve around the nucleus in fixed circular paths called orbits.

What is the mass, in grams, 6.5 mol of sodium nitrate (nano3)? please show all work?
ladessa [460]
Mass is the property of a physical body and the resistance to acceleration when a net force is applied on the body.  
The atomic mass of sodium (Na) is = 22.98 
The atomic mass of nitrate (N) is = 14.00 
The atomic mass of oxygen (O) is = 15.99  
The sodium nitrate (NaNO3) consists of the atomic masses of Na+N+(O)3 = 85 grams  
Therefore, the mass of 6.5 mol of sodium nitrate is = 6.5 * 1 mol of NaNO3 
 = 6.5 * (85) 
 = 552.50 grams

4. Find the pH at each of the following points in the titration of 25 mL of 0.3 M HF with 0.3 M NaOH. The Ka value is 6.6x10-4 a
yawa3891 [41]

Explanation:

Since HF is a weak acid, the use of an ICE table is required to find the pH. The question gives us the concentration of the HF.

HF+H2O⇌H3O++F−HF+H2O⇌H3O++F−

Initial0.3 M-0 M0 MChange- X-+ X+XEquilibrium0.3 - X-X MX M

Writing the information from the ICE Table in Equation form yields

6.6×10−4=x20.3−x6.6×10−4=x20.3−x

Manipulating the equation to get everything on one side yields

0=x2+6.6×10−4x−1.98×10−40=x2+6.6×10−4x−1.98×10−4

Now this information is plugged into the quadratic formula to give

x=−6.6×10−4±(6.6×10−4)2−4(1)(−1.98×10−4)−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√2x=−6.6×10−4±(6.6×10−4)2−4(1)(−1.98×10−4)2

The quadratic formula yields that x=0.013745 and x=-0.014405

However we can rule out x=-0.014405 because there cannot be negative concentrations. Therefore to get the pH we plug the concentration of H3O+ into the equation pH=-log(0.013745) and get pH=1.86

Phenol red is an indicator that changes color over a range from ph=6.4 to ph=8.0. what is ka of phenol red?
patriot [66]
First, we will get the average pH of the two given values:
average pH = (6.4+8) / (2) = 7.2
At this average pH, the concentration of the acid from the phenol red is equal to the concentration of the base.
pH = 7.2
[H+] = 10^(-7.2) = 6.3 * 10^-8

Phenol red has the general formula HA, this gives us:
HA <.......> H+ + A- 
At pH = 7.2, [H+] = [A-]
<span>Ka = [H+][A-]/ [HA]
</span>Ka = [H+] = <span>6.3 x 10^-8</span>

How many moles of chloroform, CHCl3, are required to fill a 253-mL flask at 100.0C and 940 torr?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

relationship between four fundamental physical properties of gases: pressure PP, volume VV, number of moles nn, and the absolute temperature TT. The ideal gas constant is denoted by RR and its exact value depends on the units chosen for the other parameters. Note that the temperature is always in Kelvins (i.e., we use the absolute temperature). The relation is:

PV=nRT

Enter your answer in the provided box. An industrial chemist introduces 2.0 atm of H2 and 2.0 atm of CO2 into a 1.00−L container
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: 0.0944 gram of H2

Explanation:

Raising the T from 25 C (298 K) to 700 C (973 K) increases the pressure of each gas by:

2.0 atm x (973 K / 298 K) = 6.53 atm

Where

Kc = Kp because the moles of product equals the moles of reactants.

At equilibriuim, the amounts are

P(H2) = 6.53 - x

P(CO2) = 6.53 - x

P(H2O) = x

P(CO) = x

Kc = Kp = .534 = (x)(x) / [(6.53 - x)(6.53 - x)]

Take the square root of each side

(.534)^0.5 = x / (6.53 - x)

x = 0.731 (6.53 - x)

x = 4.77 - 0.731x

1.731x = 4.77

x = 4.77 / 1.731 = 2.76 atm

P(H2) at equilibriuim = 6.53 - 2.76 = 3.77 atm

P(CO2) at equilibrium = 6.53 - 2.76 = 3.77 atm

PV = nRT

n = PV/RT = [(3.77 atm)(1.00 L)] / [(0.08206 L atm/K mol)(973 K)] = 0.0472 mol H2

0.0472 mol H2 x (2.00 g / 1.00 mol) = 0.0944 g
