Rutherford's gold foil experiment proved that there was a small, dense, positively charged nucleus at the center, which contained most of the mass of the atom. Which contained electrons orbiting the nucleus.

A 232-lb fullback runs the 40-yd dash at a speed of 19.8 ± 0.1 mi/h.
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

(a)  7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m

(b)  1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m

Explanation:

(a)  The de Broglie wavelength is given by the expression:

λ = h/p = h/mv

where h is plancks constant, p is momentum which is equal to mass times velocity.

We have all the data required to calculate the wavelength, but first we will have to convert the velocity to m/s, and the mass to kilograms to work in metric system.

v = 19.8 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/s ) x ( 1 h / 3600 s ) = 8.85 m/s

m = 232 lb x ( 0.454 kg/ lb ) = 105.33 kg

λ = h/ mv = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / ( 105.33 kg x 8.85 m/s ) = 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m

(b) For this part we have to use the uncertainty principle associated with wave-matter:

ΔpΔx > = h/4π

mΔvΔx > = h/4π

Δx = h/ (4π m Δv )

Again to utilize this equation we will have to convert the uncertainty in velocity to m/s for unit consistency.

Δv = 0.1 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/mi ) x ( 1 h/ 3600 s )  

     = 0.045 m/s

Δx = h/ (4π m Δv ) = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / (4π x 105.33 kg x 0.045 m/s )

     = 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m

This calculation shows us why we should not be talking of wavelengths associatiated with everyday macroscopic objects for we are obtaining an uncertainty of 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m for the position of the fullback.

4NH3+5O2-4NO+6H2O<br>how many moles of NH3 must react to produce 5.0 moles of NO?​
tresset_1 [31]

Answer: 5.0 moles

Explanation:

From the equation, we see that for every 4 moles of ammonia consumed, 4 moles of nitrogen monoxide are produced (we can reduce this to moles of ammonia consumed = moles of nitrogen monoxide produced).

This means that the answer is <u>5.0 mol</u>

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of butane is: 2C2H2 + 5O2 CO2 + 2H2O 2CH4 + 5O2 2CO2 + 4H2O 2C4H10 + 13O2 8CO2
SCORPION-xisa [38]
Butane is C₄H₁₀.

C_4H_{10} + O_2 \to CO_2 + H_2O \\ \\&#10;\hbox{balance carbon and hydrogen on the right-hand side:} \\&#10;C_4 H_{10} + O_2 \to 4 \ CO_2 + 5 \ H_2O \\ \\&#10;\hbox{balance oxygen on the left-hand side:} \\&#10;C_4 H_{10} + \frac{13}{2} \ O_2 \to 4 \ CO_2 + 5 \ H_2O \\ \\&#10;\hbox{multiply by 2 to get rid of the fraction:} \\&#10;2 \ C_4H_{10} + 13 \ O_2 \to 8 \ CO_2 + 10 \ H_2O

The balanced equation is 2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ <span>→</span> 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O.

Aniline is produced by the hydrogenation of nitrobenzene. a small amount of cyclo-hexylamine is produced as a byproduct. the rea
Tom [10]

Aniline can be produced from nitro-benzene by reduction. When nitro-benzene reacts with tin (Sn) + hydrochloride acid (HCl) then aniline is produced. The Sn + HCl forms free hydrogen ions which converts the nitro group of the benzene ring to amine group, which is aniline. In place of Sn + HCl. One can use palladium (Pd) hydrogen mixture in presence of ethanol (EtOH). There produces a side product in this reaction which is cyclohexyl amine. The reaction can be shown as.

Calculate the mass percent composition of sulfur in Al2(SO4)3.
Anastaziya [24]
The molar mass of aluminum sulftae is 342.14 g/mol.

Since the subscript shows that there are 3 sulfurs within the substance, the total mass of sulfur is 96.21g/mol

Now take the mass of the sulfur and divide it by the molar mass of aluminum sulfate, then multiply by 100:
(96.21/342.15)(100) = 28.1% mass composition of sulfate
