Answer : J. J. Thomson’s experiment disproved the theory that an atom is indivisible.

Explanation : Scientist J.J. Thomson did his experiment to prove the existence of electrons. He did the experiment using a cathode ray tube, in which a vacuum-sealed tube with a cathode and anode on one end was placed which created a beam of electrons that traveled towards the other end of the tube. This was the theory that proved that atoms consists of many subatomic particles namely electrons.

A measure of the kinetic energy of particle motion within a substance is _____.
Irina18 [472]

All particles (atoms and molecules) of matter have kinetic energy because they are always in motion.

A measure of the kinetic energy of particle motion within a substance is temperature. If the particles move faster, they have more kinetic energy, and the substance has a higher temperature

gypsum is insoluble in water. you are asked to purify a sample of gypsum that is contaminated with a soluble salt.
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

a. The apparatus required to purify gypsum sample are: Bunsen burner, beaker, Filter Funnel, stirring rod, the filter paper.

b. Gypsum is a sulfate mineral that is made up of calcium sulfate dihydrate. Step-by-step instruction to purify gypsum sample is as follows:

1. Add water to the gypsum sample in a beaker.

2. Use the stirring rod to mix the mixture well.

3. Filter off the excess solid from the mixture using the filter paper and filter funnel.

4. Put the filtered mixture over the bunsen burner and evaporate the excess water from the mixture.

5. Allow the hot liquid to cool down and filter it again through the filter paper to get the pure gypsum.

What is the mass, in grams, of a sample of 1.20 × 1022 atoms of mercury (Hg)? Show your work or explain the steps that you used
o-na [289]
Atomic mass Hg = 200.59 u.m.a

200.59 g --------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
( mass Hg ) ----------- 1.20 x10²² atoms

mass Hg = ( 1.20x10²² ) x 200.59 / 6.02x10²³

mass Hg = 2.407x10²⁴ / 6.02x10²³

= 3.998 g of Hg

hope this helps!

What is another name for a compound known as a salt? Molecule Covalent compound Element Ionic compound
emmainna [20.7K]
Take a look at their electronegativity values for this one. Electronegativity is the relative attraction  that a atom in a molecule has for the shared pair of electrons in a covalent bond<span>. Salt is Sodium Chloride which is NaCl. Na has an electronegativity value of 0.93. Cl has an electronegativity value of 3.16. The difference between the two is 2.23. This is much higher than 1.7 (a pure covalent bond e.g. Oxygen-Oxygen bond O2) therefore it is a highly ionic compound. If this was less than 1.7 it would be a polar covalent molecule. </span>
