Answer:

13.2 g of gold

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 5.25 L to ft³.

This can be obtained as follow:

Recall:

1 L = 0.0353 ft³

Therefore,

5.25 L = 5.25 × 0.0353

5.25 L = 1.85×10¯¹ ft³

From the question given above,

2.45 g of gold is present in 5.25 L ( i.e 1.85×10¯¹ ft³) of soil.

Therefore, Xg of gold will be present in 1 ft³ of soil i.e

Xg of gold = 2.45/1.85×10¯¹

Xg of gold = 13.2 g

Therefore, 13.2 g of gold is present in 1 ft³ of the soil.

Explanation:

1. Democritus proposes the existence of atoms

2. Dalton's atomic theory

3. J. J. Thomson discovers the electron

4. Rutherford's gold foil experiment

5. Bohr model

6. Schrödinger's Wave Mechanics model of the atom

The first idea about matter containing atoms dates back to Greek philosophers. One of them was Democritus .

In 1808 Dalton put forward his atomic theory

In 1897 J.J Thomson discovered cathode rays using his gas discharge tube experiment.

In 1911, Ernest Rutherford proposed the nuclear model of the atom using experiments on the gold foil.

Neils Bohr in 1913 suggested his own atomic model

Erwin Schrodinger formulated the wave equation of electrons

What is the maximum pressure at which solid CO2 (dry ice) can be converted into CO2 gas without melting?
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The triple point of carbon dioxide is 5.11 atmosphere at -56.6 degree celsius . At pressure greater than 5.11 , solid carbon dioxide liquefies ,  as it is warmed. At pressure lesser than 5.11 atmosphere , it will go into gaseous state without liquefying . Excessive pressure helps liquification process.

So maximum pressure required is 5.11 atmosphere. Beyond this pressure , solid CO2 will liquify.

Find the pressure of a gas if the volume is 2.00 L, the temperature is 310 Kelvin and
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

25.42 atm

Explanation:

Data Given:

Volume of a gas ( V )= 2.00 L

temperature of a gas ( T ) =  310 K

number of moles (n) = 2​ mol

Pressure of a gas ( P ) = to be find

Solution:

Formula to be used

              PV= nRT

Rearrange the above formula

              P = nRT / V . . . . . . . . . . (1)

Where R is ideal gas constant

R = 0.08205 L atm mol⁻¹ K⁻¹

Put values in equation 1

                 P = nRT / V

                  P = 2 mol x 0.08205 L atm mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 310 k / 2 L

                  P = 50.84 L atm / 2 L

                  P = 25.42 atm

P ressure of gas (P) will be = 25.42 atm

Does the number of electrons reaching the detector increase or decrease as you change the frequency?
velikii [3]
If you increase the frequency, the photon will have more energy and can therefore transfer more electrons to the other side. As such, you will have an increased current.
