Rutherford theorized that atoms have their charge concentrated in a very small nucleus.

This was famous Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment: he bombarded thin foil of gold with positive alpha particles (helium atom particles, consist of two protons and two neutrons).  

Rutherford observed the deflection of alpha particles on the photographic film and notice that most of alpha particles passed straight through foil.

That is different from Plum Pudding model, because it shows that most of the atom is empty space.

According to Rutherford model of the atom:

1) Atoms have their charge concentrated in a very small nucleus.

2) Major space in an atom is empty.

3) Atoms nucleus is surrounded by negatively charged particles called electrons.  

4) An atom is electrically neutral.

Urea (CH4N2O) is a common fertilizer that can be synthesized by the reaction of ammonia (NH3) with carbon dioxide as follows: 2N
Montano1993 [528]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Urea (CH₄N₂O) is a common fertilizer that can be synthesized by the reaction of ammonia (NH₃) with carbon dioxide as follows: 2NH₃(aq) + CO₂(aq) → CH₄N₂O(aq) + H₂O(l) In an industrial synthesis of urea, a chemist combines 135.9 kg of ammonia with 211.4 kg of carbon dioxide and obtains 178.0 kg of urea.

Determine the limiting reactant. (express your answer as a chemical formula)

<u>Answer:</u> The limiting reactant is ammonia (NH_3)

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

  • <u>For ammonia:</u>

Given mass of ammonia = 135.9 kg = 135900 g    (Conversion factor:  1 kg = 1000 g)

Molar mass of ammonia = 17 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of ammonia}=\frac{135900g}{17g/mol}=7994.12mol

  • <u>For carbon dioxide gas:</u>

Given mass of carbon dioxide gas = 211.4 kg = 211400 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide gas = 44 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of carbon dioxide gas}=\frac{211400g}{44g/mol}=4804.54mol

The given chemical reaction follows:

2NH_3(aq.)+CO_2(aq,)\rightarrow CH_4N_2O(aq.)+H_2O(l)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of ammonia reacts with 1 mole of carbon dioxide

So, 7994.12 moles of ammonia will react with = \frac{1}{2}\times 7994.12=3997.06mol of carbon dioxide

As, given amount of carbon dioxide is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, ammonia is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

Hence, the limiting reactant is ammonia (NH_3)

5. What is the partial pressure of the remaining gas, if the total is 384 torr 2
alexgriva [62]

Answer: 83.11 torr

Explanation:

According to Dalton's Law of partial pressure, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressure of each individual gas.

i.e Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 + .......

In this case,

Ptotal = 384 torr

P1 = 289 torr

P2 = 11.89 torr

P3 = ? (let the partial pressure of the remaining gas be Z)

Ptotal = P1 + P2 + Z

384 torr = 289 torr + 11.89 torr + Z

384 torr = 300.89 torr + Z

Z = 384 torr - 300.89 torr

Z = 83.11 torr

Thus, the partial pressure of the remaining gas is 83.11 torr.
