Answer: The results of Rutherford's gold foil experiment gave him the evidence to arrive at two conclusions: (1) an atom was much more than just empty space and scattered electrons and (2) an atom consists of a positive charge at the center where most of its mass is placed.

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford performed an experiment in which he passed alpha particles through a thin gold foil sheet. Through this sheet some of the particles passed on to the other side but some of them were reflected back.

This experiment was done by Rutherford to prove than an atom contains a tiny and heavy nucleus. He concluded that an atom has more than empty space and electrons were present in scattered form.

Also, he concluded that an atom consists of a positive charge at the center where most of its mass is placed.

Thus, we can conclude that the results of Rutherford's gold foil experiment gave him the evidence to arrive at two conclusions: (1) an atom was much more than just empty space and scattered electrons and (2) an atom consists of a positive charge at the center where most of its mass is placed.

What would diluting the vinegar do to the rate of a reaction between vinegar and sodium hydroxide? decrease the rate of reaction
GarryVolchara [31]
Vinegar is aceti acid diluted in water.

The reaction of vinegar with sodium hydroxide is:

CH3COOH + NaOH ---> CH3COONa + H2O

That is an acid-base reaction.

The speed of reaction is proportional to the concentrations of the reactants.

Then, given thatn when you dilute the vinegar you decrease the concentration of CH3COOH, the rate of reaction will decrease.

Answer: decrease the rate of reaction.

When biological samples of unknown origins are discovered at a crime scene, what should investigators do?a. assume no pathogens
adoni [48]

Answer: assume pathogens are present and treat the samples accordingly

Explanation:

When investigators are unable to conclusively ascertain the source of a biological sample found at a crime scene, the correct thing to do is to treat it as if pathogens are present in it and handle it according to set rules on how to handle pathogens.

This is done to ensure that if a pathogen is indeed present, it would not cause a health emergency by infecting those who come in contact with the samples at the scene.

What are some milk products made from lactic acid fermentation?
Nadusha1986 [10]
The presence of lactic acid, produced during the lactic acid fermentation is responsible for the sour taste and for the improved microbiological stability and safety of the food. This lactic acid fermentation is responsible for the sour taste of dairy products such as cheese, yoghurt and kefir.
