Although Rutherford is credited with the famous gold foil scattering experiment, he didn’t actually conduct this experiment hims

elf. It was done by two of his assistants, Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden. Do you think it was fair to name the experiment after Rutherford while ignoring the other two scientists? Why or why not? Give credible arguments for your answer

Although he did not do the experiment himself, he had come up with the idea of what to do and how to do it. I think that only Rutherford receiving credit is okay as the assistants did not do anything to contribute to the actual idea of the experiment.
For example, we credit the invention of the iPhone to Steve Jobs, the engineers of Apple, the designers, etc. - those with actual contributions to the invention and the ideas and not the Chinese factory workers - those who construct the iPhone itself.

When the [H+] in a solution is 1.7 × 10−9 M, what is the pOH ?
Marysya12 [62]
<em>[H⁺] = 1,7×10⁻⁹  mol/dm³</em>

pH = -log[H⁺]
pH = -log[<span>1,7×10⁻⁹]
<u>pH = 8,77</u>

pH + pOH = 14
pOH = 14-8,77
<u>pOH = 5,23

</u>:)

How can parents and other caregivers help children learn good nutrition in the home?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Healthy Eating — Make sure your child's caregivers offer healthy snacks and meals. Consider other influences. Just as they do for you, your children's friends and the media can also affect healthy choices. Some TV, online, and other ads try to persuade children to consume high-fat foods and sugary drinks.

Whats the volume of 0.522 moles of carbine dioxide
jasenka [17]
As discussed in Raymond Chang’s introductory textbook “Chemistry,” a mole is a measure of molecules, equal to approximately 6.022x10^23 molecules, where the caret ^ refers to exponentiation. Using the ideal gas formula, you can find the number of moles of carbon dioxide (CO2) in a container if you know the other needed parameters and conditions. Above 150 pounds per square inch (PSI), or around 10 times normal atmospheric pressure, the ideal gas formula starts losing accuracy and the Van der Waals formula becomes increasingly preferable.
