Answer:

b. don't take up most of the space in an atom.

Explanation:

Rutherford’s gold foil experiment showed that most of the subatomic particles are confined in a small volume at the center nucleus of the atom. When Rutherford bombarded gold foil with alpha particles he observed that a small fraction of them deflected by 180 degree. So he concluded that the center of the atom is dense.

The difference between ATP and the nucleoside triphosphates used during DNA synthesis is that:

12345 [234]

Answer:

The correct answer is d. The nucleoside triphosphates have the sugar deoxyribose; ATP has the sugar ribose.

Explanation:

The nucleoside triphosphates are components of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) so they are composed by a nitrogenous base (adenine, guanine, thymine or cytosine) and a deoxyribose sugar. In contraposition, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is composed by the nitrogenous base adenine and a ribose sugar along with three phosphates groups. Unlike ribose, deoxyribose is a 5-carbon sugar which lack of an oxygen atom in C2 position.

Part B When carbon is burned in air, it reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. When 22.8 g of carbon were burned in the pres

aksik [14]

Answer: The amount of carbon dioxide gas produced in the reaction is 83.6 grams

Explanation:

As, some amount of oxygen gas is left after the reaction is completed. So, it is present in excess and is considered as an excess reagent.

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

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

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

Given mass of carbon = 22.8 g

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of carbon}=\frac{22.8g}{12g/mol}=1.9mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of carbon and oxygen gas follows:

$C+O_2\rightarrow CO_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of carbon produces 1 mole of carbon dioxide gas

So, 1.9 moles of carbon will produce = $\frac{1}{1}\times 1.9=1.9moles$ of carbon dioxide gas

Now, calculating the mass of carbon dioxide from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Moles of carbon dioxide = 1.9 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$1.9mol=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon dioxide}}{44g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon dioxide}=(1.9mol\times 44g/mol)=83.6g$

Hence, the amount of carbon dioxide gas produced in the reaction is 83.6 grams

If a system performs 147 kJ of work while receiving 47 kJ of heat, what is change in its internal energy?

Verdich [7]

Answer:

-100 kJ

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying the first law of thermodynamics, which states that:

$\Delta U = Q-W$

where:

$\Delta U$ is the change in internal energy of a system

Q is the heat absorbed/released by the system (it is positive if absorbed by the system, negative if released by the system)

W is the work done by the system (it is positive if done by the system, negative if done on the system)

For the system in this problem we have:

W = +147 kJ is the work done by the system

Q = +47 kJ is the heat absorbed by the system

So , its change in internal energy is:

$\Delta U = +47 - (+147) =-100 kJ$
