The statement above is true. He conducted the oil-drop experiment which lead him to determine the charge of the electron. He suspended charged droplets into an oil which is in between two electrodes and balancing the upward force with the downward forces.
Sir Joseph John Thomson OM PRS (18 December 1856 – 30 August 1940) was a British physicist and Nobel Laureate in Physics, credited with the discovery of the electron, the first subatomic particle to be discovered.
Answer : The value of
at this temperature is 66.7
Explanation : Given,
Pressure of
at equilibrium = 0.348 atm
Pressure of
at equilibrium = 0.441 atm
Pressure of
at equilibrium = 10.24 atm
The balanced equilibrium reaction is,

The expression of equilibrium constant
for the reaction will be:

Now put all the values in this expression, we get :


Therefore, the value of
at this temperature is 66.7
Answer: 26.5 mm Hg
Explanation:
The vapor pressure is determined by Clausius Clapeyron equation:

where,
= initial pressure at
= ?
= final pressure at
= 100 mm Hg
= enthalpy of vaporisation = 28.0 kJ/mol =28000 J/mol
R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole.K
= initial temperature = 
= final temperature =
Now put all the given values in this formula, we get
![\log (\frac{P_1}{100})=\frac{28000}{2.303\times 8.314J/mole.K}[\frac{1}{299.5}-\frac{1}{267.9}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Clog%20%28%5Cfrac%7BP_1%7D%7B100%7D%29%3D%5Cfrac%7B28000%7D%7B2.303%5Ctimes%208.314J%2Fmole.K%7D%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B299.5%7D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B267.9%7D%5D)



Thus the vapor pressure of
in mmHg at 26.5 ∘C is 26.5
It is easier to determine this if we draw the structural formula of lactic acid as shown in the attached picture. There are three functional groups in lactic acid: carboxyl group, hydroxyl group, and the parent alkane chain. Any of the hydrogens in the alkane chain is the least acidic. Then, it is followed by the H in the hydroxyl group. The most acidic is the H in the carboxyl group.
