This is a tricky question. All that matters are ratios of percentages, not percentages themselves. So no one should directly compare 27.2 with 42.9. We must and shall compare the ratios (27.2 to 72.8) and (42.9 to 57.1).
Take them both down to 1 to and see what happens.
Working out the formulas knowing atomic masses is a bit beside the point; this is how people first DISCOVERED the idea of atomic mass.
A
Carbon Oxygen
27.2g 72.8g (100-27.2)
Moles 27.2/12 72.8/16
2.27 4.55
Ratio 1 2
Do the same with the other
The postulate of Dalton's atomic theory which is a result of the law of conservation of mass is: Atoms are indivisible particles, which can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
The question is incomplete but i will try to offer as much help as i can.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The electron was discovered by J.J Thompson. His model of the atom was called the plum-pudding model of the atom.
He discovered that cathode rays being negatively charged particles were deflected by a magnet in just the same way as moving, negative electrically charged particles.
Similarly, in an electric field, they are deflected towards the positive plate of the electrostatic field which shows that they are negatively charged.
Answer:
An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction while a molecule is a group of chemically combined atoms.
Explanation:
Answer:The amount of product will be higher than the amount of substrate at equilibrium
Explanation:
Recall that the equilibrium constant K depends on the amounts of reactants and products present in the system at equilibrium.
Considering the equation; K = [X]/[Y], as the concentration of X increases above that of Y, the equilibrium constant K becomes very high, hence the answer above.
