Answer:

D.)Most of the mass of an atom is located in the nucleus.

Explanation:

Rutherford conducted his famous gold foil experiment which refined our understanding of the structure of an atom. Through the experiment he observed that when positively charged alpha particles were bombarded against a thin gold foil, majority of them passed through the foil undisturbed whereas a small percentage retraced their path.

There were two main conclusions:

-Since most alpha particles simply passed through undeviated this suggested that majority of the space inside the atom is empty

- Also, since some of them completely bounced back this suggested that there is a positively charged core in which the mass of the nucleus is concentrated.

When cyclohexene is treated with KMnO4, H2O, the syn-1,2-diol is produced. What reaction occurs when benzene is similarly treate
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

No reaction is observed

Explanation:

The benzene ring is aromatic. Being an aromatic ring, the benzene ring is remarkably stable to all reactions that destroy the aromatic ring.

Alkenes are oxidized to alkanols in the presence of KMnO4 but this reaction does not occur with benzene. However, substituted benzenes having hydrogen atoms attached to the substituent carbon atom can be oxidized to the corresponding carboxylic acid.

9.0 mol Na2S can from 9.0 mol CuS and 8.0 mol CuSO4 can form 8.0 mol Cus.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

765.0 grams CuS

Explanation:

The limiting reagent is the reactant which completely reacts before the other reactant(s) is used up. When 9.0 moles Na₂S and 8.0 moles CuSO₄ react, it appears that CuSO₄ is the limiting reagent. You can tell because it results in the production of less product.

You can determine the mass of CuS by multiplying the moles by the molar mass. It is important to arrange the ratio in a way that allows for the cancellation of units.

Molar Mass (CuS): 95.62 g/mol

8.0 moles CuS               95.62 g
-------------------------  x  -----------------------  =  765.0 grams CuS
                                         1 mole
