if a negatively charged rod is held near a neutral metal ball, the ball is attracted to the rod. this happens because

Wich statment belongs to Daltons atomic theroy?

lozanna [386]

Answer:

Dalton's Atomic Theory states that :-

1) All matter is made up of very tiny particles called atoms.

2) Atoms are indivisible particles , which can't be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

3) Atoms of a given element are identical in mass & chemical properties.

4) Atoms of very different elements have different masses & chemical properties.

5) Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers to form compounds.

6) The relative number & kinds of atoms are constant in a given compound.

It's drawback's are :-

1) Atoms can be divided further into electrons , protons & neutrons.

2) According to Dalton Atomic Theory, atoms of an element are identical in mass, size and many other chemical or physical properties. But, practically we observe that atoms of several elements differ in their densities and masses. These atoms with the different masses are known as isotopes. For example, Chlorine (Cl) has 2 isotopes with the mass numbers of 35 and 37.

3) Also, according to Dalton Atomic Theory, atoms of two-different elements differ in mass, size and many other chemical or physical properties. However, this is not correct for all situations. For example, Argon (Ar) and Calcium (Ca) atoms, each have an atomic mass of 40 amu. These atoms with similar atomic masses are isobars.

4) Dalton Atomic Theory fails to explain the existence of allotropes. For example, Dalton atomic theory fails to explain the differences in properties of charcoal, graphite, and diamond (which are the allotropes of carbon).

The total kinetic energy of two cars is measured before and after they crash into each other. The total kinetic energy of the tw

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Option B, Some of the cars' kinetic energy was converted to sound and heat energy.

Explanation:

In an elastic collision, no energy is lost during and after collision. Thus, it can be said that in an elastic collision both momentum and kinetic energy remains conserved.

While in non-elastic collision, kinetic energy of the system is lost. However, the momentum of the system is conserved. Generally, during and after collision some of the kinetic energy is lost as thermal energy, sound energy etc.

Hence, option B is correct

When using a calorimeter, the initial temperature of a metal is 70.4C. The initial temperature of the water is 23.6C. At the end

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

1) 29.8 C

At the beginning, the metal is at higher temperature (70.4 C) while the water is at lower temperature (23.6 C). When they are put in contact, the metal transfers heat to the water, until they reach thermal equilibrium: at thermal equilibrium the two objects (the metal and the water have same temperature). Therefore, since the temperature of the water at thermal equilibrium is 29.8 C, the final temperature of the metal must be the same (29.8 C).

2) 6.2 C

The temperature change of the water is given by the difference between its final temperature and its initial temperature:

$\Delta T = T_f - T_i$
