Answer:

The correct answer is that yes all the scientific theories and their features contributes to the discovery of an atom.

Explanation:

In the beginning, Democritus gave the term atom, however, he gave the wrong theory regarding atom. The term atom is even used at the present time. Aristotle provided the right theory regarding the prevalence of atom. Then Dalton postulated various things in his atomic theory, in which some were accurate, while others were proved later wrong.  

The accurate postulates of Dalton were also incorporated in J.J. Thomson theory of sub-atomic particles. Thus, all the theories associated with an atom provides to its discovery, irrespective of the fact that whether it is correct or wrong.

Answer is: the discovery of sub atomic particles like electrons.

J. J. Thomson discovered the electron in 1897.  

His "plum pudding" model (1904) suggested: the electrons are embedded in the positive charge.  

With this model, he abandoned his earlier hypothesis (the atom was composed of immaterial vortices).  

J.J. Thomson placed two oppositely charged electric plates around the cathode ray. He did experiments using different metals as electrode materials and found that the properties of the cathode ray remained constant no matter what cathode material he used.

Tomson concluded that atoms are divisible and that the corpuscles are their building blocks (atoms are made up of smaller particles).

When the pressure that a gas exerts on a sealed container changes from 893 mm hg to 778 mm hg, the temperature changes from 49.3
solong [7]

Answer: The final temperature of the gas is 7.58 °C.

Explanation: We are given initial and final pressure of the system and we need to find the final temperature of the system.

To calculate it, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac.

His law states that pressure is directly related to the temperature of the gas.

P\propto T

Or,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure = 893 mmHg = 1.175atm (Conversion factor: 1atm = 760mmHg)

T_1 = initial temperature = 49.3°C = [49.3 + 273.15]K = 322.45K

P_2 = Final pressure = 778mmHg = 1.023atm

T_ = Final temperature = ?°C

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{1.175atm}{322.45K}=\frac{1.023atm}{T_2}\\\\T_2=280.73K

Converting Final temperature from kelvin to degree Celsius.

T_2=280.73K=[280.73-273.15]^oC=7.58^oC

Hence, the final temperature of the gas is 7.58 °C.

A chemist has synthesized two new dyes based on the molecular structure of plant-based dyes. The lowest energy absorption line f
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

1. The dye that absorbs at 530 nm.

Explanation:

The dye will absorb light to promote the transition of an electron from the HOMO to the LUMO orbital.

The higher the gap, the higher the energy of transition. The energy can be calculated by E = hc/λ, in which h and c are constants and λ is the wavelength.

The equation shows that the higher the energy, the higher the gap and the lower the wavelength.

Therefore, the dye with absorption at 530 nm has the higher HOMO-LUMO gap.
