Positively charged protons in the nucleus, hope this helps.
Olin [163]3 years ago

Answer is: Positively charged protons in the nucleus of the gold atom.

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.

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

A solution is made by mixing 33.0 ml of ethanol, C2H6O and 67.0 ml of water. Assuming ideal behavior, what is the vapor pressure
ivann1987 [24]
Grams ethanol = 33 ml times .789 gms/ml = 26.037 gms 

<span>Moles ethanol = 26.037 gms / 46 gms/mole = .57 moles </span>

<span>Moles water = 67 ml or 67 grams/18 gms/mole = 3.22 moles </span>

<span>total moles = .57 + 3.72 = 4.29 moles </span>

<span>Mole fraction ethanol = .57 moles ethanol / 4.29 moles total = 0.13</span>

<span>Moles fraction water = 3.72 moles water / 4.29 moles total = 0.87</span>

<span>Partial pressure of ethanol = mole fraction ethanol (.13) _ times VP ethanol 43.9 torr) = 5.707 torr </span>

<span>partial pressure water = mole fraction water .87) times VP water (l7.5 torr) = 15.23 torr </span>

<span>Total vapor pressure over solution = 5.71 torr + 15.23 torr = 20.94 torr</span>

A student placed a small chip of limestone into a hydrochloric acid solution, and carbon dioxide gas was released. The carbon di
Phoenix [80]

Physical and chemical changes are reversible and nonreversible changes. The release of carbon dioxide gas indicates a chemical change.

<h3>What is a chemical change?</h3>

A chemical change is a change in which a new substance is produced when the reactants react in the reaction mixture. The chemical produced cannot be reversed back to the reactants and hence, it is nonreversible.

The release of carbon dioxide is a chemical change as limestone and hydrochloric acid react with each other chemically and as a result, a new substance was formed.

Therefore, the production of carbon dioxide indicates a chemical change.
