Answer:

The correct answer is C: A radiation consisting of uncharged particles is emitted when alpha particles strike beryllium atoms.

Explanation:

Chadwick discovered neutron while experimenting with a gold foil. A stream of alpha particles produced from a polonium source was directed at beryllium target. It was noticed that some penetrating radiations were produced. These uncharged particles were called neutrons because on the charge detector these particles showed no deflection.

Their nuclear reaction is as follow.

                             ₂He + ₄Be ----------> ₀n + ₆C

Chadwick noticed that neutrons cannot ionize gases and are highly penetrating particles.

What is the mass, in grams, of 28.58 mL of acetone?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
<span>If you look up the density of Acetone (Propanone in IUPAC names) you will find it is 0.7925g/cm3. This is the same as 0.7925g/ml. 

You can calculate mass using the equation:- mass = density x volume 
In your example mass = 0.7925 x 28.40 = 22.51g</span><span>
I think That's right. Hope this helps!!! Good luck!</span>
