What are some challenges scientists face when using models?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Aleonysh [2.5K]4 years ago

Models are usually approximations, too simple and sometimes unrealistic.

Explanation:

A model is an abstraction of the real world. Models are used by scientists to mimic and gain better insights into how the real world looks like to a greater degree of accuracy. Here are some set backs of models;

  1. Limitations due to parameters that can be modeled; it is nearly impossible to incorporate all the elements of the real world into a model. A scientist may have limited resources to integrate different data sets to perfectly have a good picture of the real world.
  2. Models are approximations: the fact that models are not exact can be worrisome. Questions like to what extent are these scenarios rounded can be very difficult to come by with and this can spoil a good research.
  3. Over simplicity: most times when a model proves too complex to work with, some parameters are left out and this can cause a good model to be watered and not portray the real world at all.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is <em>D) Niels Bohr​</em>

Explanation:

Bohr proposed a new atomic model, whereby he explains that electrons rotate around the nucleus at well-defined levels, describing circular orbits. Each orbit was called the energy level (it is called the main quantum number n, going from numbers 1 to 7). To make his model, Bohr studied the Hydrogen atom (it has a proton in its nucleus and an electron rotating around it).

Question 4 to make a 0.500 m solution, one could take 0.500 moles of solute and add 1.00 l of solvent. enough solvent to make 1.
stealth61 [152]
The answer is enough solvent to make 1.00 L of solution. Since molarity is the number of moles of solute in one liter of solution, adding 0.500 mole solute to one liter solvent might not result to a solution with one liter total volume. Less than one liter solvent is first added to dissolve 0.500 mole solute and then the solution is carefully filled with more solvent until the solution reaches to one liter total volume. Hence, the resulting solution is a 0.500M concentration.

Determine the energy of the electron in the 1s orbital of a helium ion (He+ )
Luda [366]
He Rydberg formula can be extended for use with any hydrogen-like chemical elements. 
<span>1/ λ = R*Z^2 [ 1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2] </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>λ is the wavelength of the light emitted in vacuum; </span>
<span>R is the Rydberg constant for this element; R 1.09737x 10^7 m-1 </span>
<span>Z is the atomic number, for He, Z =2; </span>
<span>n1 and n2 are integers such that n1 < n2 </span>
<span>The energy of a He+ 1s orbital is the opposite to the energy needed to ionize the electron that is </span>
<span>taking it from n = 1 (1/n1^2 =1) to n2 = ∞ (1/n2^2 = 0) </span>
<span>.: 1/ λ = R*Z^2 = 1.09737x 10^7*(2)^2 </span>
<span>λ = 2.278*10^-8 m </span>
<span>E = h*c/λ </span>
<span>Planck constant h = 6.626x10^-34 J s </span>
<span>c = speed of light = 2.998 x 10^8 m s-1 </span>
<span>E = (6.626x10^-34*2.998 x 10^8)/(2.278*10^-8) = 8.72*10^-18 J ion-1 </span>
<span>Can convert this value to kJ mol-1: </span>
<span>(8.72*10^-18*6.022 x 10^23)/1*10^3 = 5251 kJ mol-1 </span>
<span>Lit value: RP’s secret book: 5240.4 kJ mol-1 (difference is due to a small change in R going from H to He+) </span>
<span>So energy of the 1s e- in He+ = -5251 kJ mol-1</span>

How many positively charged nucleons are in an atom of ^50 24Cr?
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

positively charged nucleons are 24

Explanation:

Given element:

           ₂₄⁵⁰ Cr

The superscript before the symbol of the atoms is mass number

The subscript before the symbol is the atomic number

  Cr is the symbol of the atom

Now,

Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom.

The protons are the positively charged particles in an atom.

For this specie, the positively charged nucleons are 24
