Ernest Rutherford applies alpha particle towards an atom, some atom showed deflection by smaller angle, very few through large angle and many just passed without any deflection.

His results changed the idea for distribution of positive charges as he concluded almost all the positive charge is in center of the atom (inside nucleus) and it is very heavy than electrons which revolves outside the nucleus

Hope this helps!

If 3.00 g of aluminum hydroxide reacts with 1.40 g of sulfuric acid, what is the mass of water produced?
Leokris [45]
The Law of Conservation of Mass states that matter is not created nor destroyed.

Based on this, we can use some addition to find the answer.

3.00 + 1.40 = 4.40 g

Hope this helps :)

The student's lab manual says to mix some of his Na2CO3 solution with an aqueous solution of copper(II) sulfate (CuSO4)
lord [1]

Explanation:

When the student mixed the solution sodium carbonate with solution of copper(II) sulfate ; Copper Hydroxocarbonate , sodium sulfate and carbon dioxide gas was obtained as a products.

The balanced chemical reaction

2Na_2CO_3+2CuSO_4\rightarrow Cu_2(OH)_2CO_3+2Na_2SO_4+CO_2

Where:

Cu_2(OH)_2CO_3 = Copper(II) Hydroxocarbonate

Na_2CO_3 = Sodium carbonate

CuSO_4 = Copper(II) sulfate

Na_2SO_4 = Sodium sulfate

CO_2 = Carbon-dioxide
