Rutherford's experiment was the gold foil experiment.

The gold foil experiment was him shooting alpha particles (you could think of this as a Helium atom without its electrons) into a gold foil. The whole experiment was surrounded with something called Zinc Sulfide which sparked when the alpha particles hit it.

Most of the alpha particles went through, approximately 1 in 8000 alpha particles deflected at a large angle (almost right back to where it was shot).

This constant ratio caused him to conclude that:-the atom was mostly empty space (since most alpha particles went through)-there was something very positive in the atom (the proton)-the proton was very dense (since it made something going light speed deflect back at a large angle)-The proton was also very small (since only 1 in 8000 hit it)

Prior to the discovery of the proton, John Dalton's periodic table was used. Having "elements" such as soda and potash. Now that we have discovered the proton and found out that each atom's number of protons is unique, we used that to classify each element's identity.

Consider the following equilibrium: H2CO3+H2O = H3O+HCO3^-1. What is the correct equilibrium expression?
mylen [45]

Equilibrium expression is Keq = \frac{[H3O+][HCO3^-]}{[H2CO3]}\\

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium expression is denoted by Keq.

Keq is  the equilibrium constant that is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power its stoichiometric coefficients.

Example -

aA + bB = cC + dD

So, Keq = conc of product/ conc of reactant

Keq = \frac{[C]^c [D]^d}{[A]^a [B]^b}

So from the equation, H₂CO₃+H₂O = H₃O+HCO₃⁻¹

Keq = \frac{[H3O^+]^1 [HCO3^-]^1}{[H2CO3]^1 [H2O]^1}

The concentration of pure solid and liquid is considered as 1. Therefore, concentration of H2O is 1.

Thus,

Keq = \frac{[H3O+][HCO3^-]}{[H2CO3]}\\

Therefore, Equilibrium expression is Keq = \frac{[H3O+][HCO3^-]}{[H2CO3]}\\
